NIGHT SCENE
Suitable for shooting pictures in the evening or at night. The camera sets a
slower shutter speed than is used in normal shooting. If you take a picture of
a street at night in any other mode, the lack of brightness will result in a dark
picture with only dots of light showing. In this mode, the true appearance of
the street is captured. The camera automatically sets the optimal shooting
conditions. “Night scene mode” ( p.47)
SELF PORTRAIT
Enables you to take a picture of yourself while
holding the camera. Point the lens towards
yourself and the focus will be locked on you. The
camera automatically sets the optimal shooting
conditions. The zoom is fixed in the Wide position
and cannot be changed.
MOVIE
Lets you record movies. The camera maintains the correct focus and
exposure even if your subject moves or the distance between your subject
and the camera changes. You cannot record movies with sound. “Recording
movies” ( p.49)
