Shoot by Ambience Selection

4 Set the ambience effect.

Press the <V> key to select the effect bar so that [Effect] appears at the bottom.

Press the <U> key or turn the <6> dial to select the desired effect.

5 Take the picture.

To shoot while the Live View image is displayed, press the shutter button. To return to viewfinder shooting, press the <A> button to exit Live View shooting. Then press the shutter button completely to take the picture. If you change the shooting mode or set the power switch to <2>, the setting will revert back to

[ Standard setting].

The Live View image shown with the ambience setting applied will not look exactly the same as the actual photo.

Using flash may minimize the ambience effect.

In bright outdoors, the Live View image you see on the screen may not have exactly the same brightness or ambience as the actual photo. Set [52: LCD brightness] to 4 and look at the Live View image while the screen is unaffected by stray light.

If you do not want the Live View image to be displayed when setting functions, press the <Q> button after step 1. When you press the <Q> button, the Quick Control screen is displayed and you can set [Ambience- based shots] and [Effect], then shoot with the viewfinder.
