HP M415 manual Taking Pictures and Recording Video Clips

Setting Description

Action Use Action mode to capture sporting events, moving cars, or any scene where you want to stop the action. The camera uses fast shutter speeds and higher ISO speeds to stop motion.

Portrait Use Portrait mode for pictures that have one or more people as their primary subject. The camera combines a smaller F-number to blur the background, with lower sharpness for a more natural effect.

Landscape Use Landscape mode to capture scenes with deep perspective, such as mountains or city skylines, when you want the foreground and the background to be in focus. The camera combines a higher F-number for better depth of field with higher sharpness for a more vivid effect.

Beach & Snow Use Beach & Snow mode to capture bright outdoor scenes and balance out harsh lighting.

If the shooting mode setting is anything other than the default Auto Mode setting, the icon for the setting will appear in the Live View screen. The new setting remains in effect until it is changed again or until the camera is turned off. The shooting mode setting resets to the default Auto Mode setting when you turn the camera off.

NOTE: The shooting mode does not apply when you are recording video clips.

TIP: To restore the shooting mode setting to what it was when you last turned the camera off, hold down the button as you turn the camera back on.
