•The BEST SHOT YouTube scene sets up the camera for recording movies that are optimized for uploading to YouTube. Movies recorded with the YouTube scene are stored in a special folder to make them easy to locate for uploading (page 93).

•Your camera includes a sample scene that optimizes settings for auction site images. Depending on your camera model, the sample scene is named either “For eBay” or “Auction”. Images you record using the auction site sample scene are stored in a special folder so you can easily find them on your computer (page 93).

•High Sensitivity

–The high sensitivity setting is disabled whenever the camera’s flash fires.

–High sensitivity may not produce the desired results in very dark conditions.

–When shooting with slow shutter speeds, use a tripod to protect against blurring due to camera movement.

–Under certain lighting conditions, the camera will perform an automatic noise filtering operation to reduce digital noise in the image. This operation causes the camera to take longer than normal to save the image and be ready for the next shot.

•BEST SHOT scene images were not shot using this camera.
