P, A, S, and M modes
Use these modes when you want more control over your camera and pictures.
Use this mode | For | | | |
Program | Controlling exposure compensation (how much light enters the camera). |
| The camera automatically sets the shutter speed and aperture (f-stop) |
| based on the scene lighting. Program mode offers the ease of auto |
| shooting with full access to all menu options. Press | to select |
| settings. | | | |
| |
Aperture | Controlling aperture, exposure compensation, and ISO speed. Aperture |
Priority | priority mode is primarily used to control depth of field (the range of |
| sharpness). | | | |
| NOTE: The aperture setting may be affected when using optical zoom. |
| Press | to select settings. | | |
| |
Shutter | Controlling the shutter speed, exposure compensation, and ISO speed. |
Priority | The camera automatically sets the aperture for proper exposure. Shutter |
| priority mode is primarily used to prevent blur when your subject is |
| moving. To prevent camera shake, use a tripod for slow shutter speeds. |
| Press | to select settings. | | |
| |
Manual | The highest level of creative control. You set the aperture, shutter speed, |
| and ISO speed. Exposure compensation acts as an exposure meter, |
| recommending the proper combination of aperture and shutter speed to |
| produce an acceptable exposure. To prevent camera shake, use a tripod |
| for slow shutter speeds. Press | to select settings. | |
| | | | |
NOTE: Settings you change in P, A, S, or M modes apply only to pictures taken in those modes. For example, if you change the Color Mode to Sepia while in P, A, S, or M mode, you retain the default setting of Color for Auto and Scene modes.
The settings, including Flash, are maintained for P, A, S, and M modes—even when you change modes or turn off the camera. Use Reset to Default (see the table that starts on page 32) to reset P, A, S, or M mode to its default setting.
