■Auto – sets all the parameters, so you can just point and shoot.

■Portrait – uses a larger aperture for reduced depth-of-field, bringing the subject into focus while blurring background.

■Landscape – uses a smaller aperture to capture landscape scenes.

■Night Scene Mode

– captures background detail and the subject with ideal exposure

for both.

■Fast Shutter Mode – selects rapid shutter speeds to let you freeze fast-moving subjects.

■Slow Shutter Mode – selects slow shutter speeds to let you add motion blur to images.
