Picture-taking modes

Choose the mode that best suits your subjects and surroundings. (For flash ranges, see page 50.)

Use this mode	For
Auto	General picture-taking—offers an excellent balance of image quality and
	ease of use.
Portrait	Full-frame portraits of people. Allows the subject to be sharp and the
	background to be indistinct. For best results, position your subject at least
	6 ft (2 m) away and fill the frame with a head and shoulder pose. Use
	Telephoto to exaggerate background blur.
Scene	Point-and-shoot simplicity when taking pictures under special conditions.
	(See Scene modes.)
Video	Capturing video with sound. (See page 6.)

Press a button to choose a mode.

Use this mode	For
Landscape	Far-away scenes. The camera uses infinity auto-focus. Auto-focus framing
	marks are not available in Landscape.
Close-up	Close range. Use available light instead of flash, if possible. The camera
	automatically sets the focus distance depending on the zoom position.

Press until the Close-up or

Landscape icon appears in the

LCD status area.
