Shooting Modes

AUTO

The camera automatically selects settings.

 

Manual

Allows you to select settings yourself, such as the exposure compensation, white balance, my colors or ISO speed.

 

 

 

 

Digital Macro

 

 

 

 

 

Allows you to shoot when the distance from the lens (at

 

maximum wide angle) to the subject is within 2 – 60 cm

 

(0.79 in. – 2.0 ft.). The subject can be shown larger than in

 

standard macro mode because the camera trims the image

MANUAL edges and zooms in with the digital zoom.

computer.
