Setting Shooting Menus—continued Shooting Mode 
USER SETTING
The camera can “memorize” up to three combinations of settings, including White Balance, Metering, Continuous, Best Shot Selector, Image Adjustment, Saturation Control, Lens and Image Sharpening. These settings can be recalled as desired, allowing you to create separate combinations of settings for different shooting conditions and then recall them later at a touch.

EXPOSURE OPTIONS
In certain cases, you may want to modify the exposure setting as metered by the camera so as to intentionally over- or underexpose the image. This is known as exposure compensation. Alternatively, you may wish to maintain the same exposure over a number of different images, for example when you are taking pictures that must be composited or displayed together.
