SCENE MODES
When using a programmed SCENE mode, the camera is automatically configured to the best image capture settings for the situation.

FLASH control in SCENE mode
Any flash settings (See page 19.) can be used in SCENE mode. Please note that using either the NO FLASH or FORCED FLASH settings in dark scenes will lengthen the time of exposure (shutter speed) up to 1/2 sec. which may lead to blurring. The use of a tripod is recommended to prevent blurring.
NORMAL MODE
This mode is best for most shooting. TheFLASHworks automatically based on the available light on the subject. The SHUTTER speed is also selected to minimize blurring.
LANDSCAPE MODE
This mode is best for broad landscapes. The FLASH is deactivated and the depth of field is increased. In low light the shutter speed is slower so you can take night scenes. Use a tripod to prevent blurring.
PORTRAIT MODE
This mode is designed for personal portraits. The depth of field is reduced
When using the FORCED FLASH in dark settings the SLOW SYNCRO SHUTTER feature is set (See page 19.) allowing you to take shots with a brighter background. The use of a tripod is recommended to prevent blurring.
ALERT
When any SCENE mode is set, selecting MACRO shifts the camera settings to NORMAL mode. If you cancel the MACRO, the camera settings remains in NORMAL mode.
