Characteristics of Each Scene

Use of a tripod is recommended in scene modes with Oindicated due to slow shutter speed.

Set Vibration reduction in the setup menu (A103) to Off when using a tripod to stabilize the camera.

For scene modes that use the flash, be sure to lower the K (flash pop-up) control to raise the flash before shooting (A52).

YHand-held(default setting): This enables you to shoot with the minimum of camera shake and noise even when holding the camera by hand.

-Once the shutter-release button is pressed all the way, hold the camera steady without moving it until a still picture is displayed. After taking a picture, do not turn the camera off before the monitor switches to the shooting screen.

-The angle of view (i.e., the area visible in the frame) seen in the saved image is narrower than that seen on the monitor at the time of shooting.

ZTripod: Select this mode when the camera is stabilized, such as with a tripod.

-Vibration reduction is not used even if Vibration reduction in the setup menu (A103) is set to Normal or Active.
