Some scenes like Night Scene and Fireworks results in a slow shutter speed setting. Since a slow shutter speed increases the chance of digital noise in the image, the camera automatically performs a digital noise reduction process when either of these scenes is selected. This means that it will take a bit longer for the image to be saved which is indicated by the back lamp flashing green. Do not perform any key operation during that time. Also, it is a good idea to use a tripod to avoid image blur due to camera movement when shooting at slow shutter speeds.

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 138).

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.

Images shot using a BEST SHOT scene may not produce the results you expected due to shooting conditions and other factors.

You can modify the camera settings that are made after you select a BEST SHOT scene. Note, however, that the BEST SHOT settings revert to their defaults when you select another BEST SHOT scene or turn off the camera.
