Shooting Particular Scenes

hLandscape

Use for vivid landscape shots. The camera selects the focus point containing the closest main subject; the built-in flash and AF-assist illuminator turn off automatically.

iChild

Use for snapshots of children. Clothing and background details are vividly rendered while skin tones are given a soft, natural finish. The camera selects the focus point containing the closest main subject.

jSports

High shutter speeds freeze motion for dynamic sports shots in which the main subject stands out clearly. The camera focuses continuously while the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, tracking the subject in the center focus point. If the subject leaves the center focus point, the camera will continue to focus based on information from the other focus points. The starting focus point can be selected by pressing the multi selector left or right (A 59). The built-in flash and AF-assist illuminator turn off automatically.
