This setting allows you to determine how saturated the colors will be in your pictures.
1In the Capture menu (page 40), select Saturation.
2In the Saturation menu, use the
buttons to highlight a setting. The new setting is applied to the Live View screen behind the menu, so you should be able to see the effect the setting will have on the picture.
3Press OK to save the setting and return to the Capture menu.
The following table helps explain the settings in more detail:
Icon Setting Description

|
|
| default setting. |

|
| Outdoor landscape photography can use high | |
|
|
| |
|
|
| saturation to create skies that are more blue, or |
|
|
| sunsets that are more orange. |
If the new setting is anything other than the default setting of Medium, the icon for the setting (in the table above) will appear in the Live View screen.
The new setting remains in effect (even if you turn the camera off) until it is changed again.
