3Shooting Landscapes

Use the <3> (Landscape) mode for wide scenery, night scenes, or to have everything in focus from near to far. The greens and blues also become more vivid and sharp than with <1> (Full Auto).

Shooting Tips

With a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end.

When using a zoom lens, use the wide-angle end. This will have objects near and far in focus, better than at the telephoto end. It also adds breadth to landscapes.

Shooting night scenes.

Since the built-in flash will be disabled, this mode is also good for night scenes. Use a tripod to prevent camera shake. If you want to photograph a person against a night scene, set the Mode Dial to <6> (Night Portrait) and use a tripod. (p.51)
