Scene Recognition (DSC-W730)
Advanced mode
The camera automatically detects shooting conditions, and then takes the shot. When motion is
detected, the ISO sensitivity is increased according to the movement to reduce subject blur. When the
camera is set to Intelligent Auto mode, you can select [Advanced] mode, in which the camera
automatically shoots two images.
In Scene Recognition, the position of an icon displayed on the screen is different depending on the
circumstances. It depends on whether the camera recognizes a scene or a condition. If the camera
recognizes a scene, icons and guides such as
(Portrait), (Infant), (Night Portrait), (Night
Scene),
(Backlight Portrait), (Backlight), (Landscape), (Macro), (Spotlight) or (Low
Light) are displayed on the first line. If the camera recognizes a condition, icons such as
(Tripod) or
(Move) are displayed on the second line. The camera may recognize both a scene and a condition,
or just one.

Notes
The Scene Recognition function does not operate when you shoot images using digital zoom.
The available flash settings are [Advanced Flash], [Auto] and [Off].
These scenes may not be recognized depending on the situation.
In Tracking focus mode,
(Portrait), (Infant), (Night Portrait) or (Backlight Portrait) are
not recognized.
If the environment causes vibrations to be transferred to the camera when
(Tripod) and (Night
Scene) conditions are recognized at the same time, the
(Tripod) conditions may not be
recognized.
Sometimes a slow shutter results when
(Tripod) and (Night Scene) conditions are recognized
at the same time. Keep the camera still while shooting.
