Setting the Photo Effect

The DC 3400 has four built-in photo effect modes.

Auto: When in automatic mode, the camera will adjust itself automatically to take the best possible picture under the given conditions.

Portrait: This preset is optimized for taking “head shots” of people. The lens focuses more on the center of the frame than on the peripheral areas.

Scene: This preset is optimized for taking landscape pictures. The lens focus is evenly distributed over the area in the frame.

Black and White: Use this photo effect if you want to take black and white (gray scale) pictures
