The Scenes feature is off and photos can be taken manually.

Night scene

Use when taking photos at night or in poorly lit environments. Due to long exposure time, the camera must be held still or placed on a stable surface.

Beach and snow

Use in bright environments to avoid underexposed photos.

Sports

Use for photos of fast-moving objects. Short exposure time minimises motion blurring.

Exposure value

Metering

This function automatically determines a well-balanced exposure by measuring the amount of light striking the image you want to capture.

Centre

Adjust the exposure to the centre of the image.

Average

Calculate the exposure based on the amount of light striking the whole image.
