CAMERA CONTROLS

MODE BUTTON

Mode button

The mode button gives quick, easy access to the camera’s

flash modes and subject programs. By pressing the mode

 

button, the mode indicators point to the active mode. To

 

cycle through the modes in reverse order, press and hold

 

the mode button and use the left key of the controller to

 

change the modes. When the camera is turned off, the

 

mode is reset to autoflash. The mode can also be reset to

 

autoflash by pressing and holding the mode button for

 

about two seconds.

Four flash modes are available: autoflash, autoflash with red-eye reduction, fill-flash, and flash cancel (p. 19). Three subject programs can be chosen: night portrait, land- scape/night view, and macro (p. 20). Subject programs optimize the camera’s performance for certain subjects. Each of the flash modes and subject programs has two posi- tions, one with the mode alone and one with the self-timer (p. 21). The mode button cannot be used with movie recording (p. 26).
