Scene Mode
The camera offers a choice of “scene” modes. Choosing a scene mode automatically
optimizes settings to suit the selected scene, making creative photography as simple
as selecting a mode, framing a picture, and shooting.
Portrait
Use for portraits with
soft, natural-looking skin tones.
Landscape
Use for vivid landscape
shots in daylight.
Child
Use for snapshots of children.
Clothing and background details are vividly rendered, while skin tones remain soft
and natural.
Sports
Fast shutter speeds freeze
motion for dynamic sports shots in which the main subject stands out clearly.
Close up
Use for close-up shots of flowers, insects,
and other small objects (a macro lens can be used to focus at very close ranges).
Night Portrait
Use for a natural balance between
the main subject and the background in portraits taken under low light.

photographing night landscapes, including street lighting and neon signs.
