Programmed Image Control Modes

Select a shooting mode to suit the target subject, and the camera will be set to obtain the best results.

Portrait

This mode blurs the background to make the human subject stand out.

•Holding down the shutter button executes con- tinuous shooting.

•To improve the background blur, use a telephoto lens and fill the frame with the subject or have the subject stand farther away from the back- ground.

Landscape

This is for wide scenic views, night scenes, etc.

•Using a wide-angle lens will further enhance the depth and breadth of the picture.

Close-up

Use this mode to take close-up shots of flow- ers, insects, etc.

•As much as possible, focus the subject at the lens’ closest focusing distance.

•To obtain a larger magnification, use the tele- photo end of a zoom lens.

•For better close-ups, an EOS-dedicated macro lens and Macro Ring Lite (both optional) are recommended.
