Mode dial: SCN
When shooting night scenes, shooting people at night, shooting landscapes, shooting at the shore or snowy scenes, shooting fireworks, or shooting with priority on the shutter speed such as motion scenes, use the modes listed below to increase the quality of your images.
Fireworks mode
Fireworks are recorded in all their splendor by setting the focus distance to infinity. The shutter speed becomes slower, so using a tripod is recommended.
•You cannot shoot in macro mode.
•You cannot use the flash.
•You can change the shutter speed by setting an EV adjustment value (page 45).
•You cannot set the white balance.
Use this mode to shoot moving subjects outdoors or in other bright places.
•The shutter speed becomes faster, so images shot in dark places become darker.
•The flash is set to 
(Force flash) or 
(No flash).
Beach mode
When shooting seaside or lakeside scenes, the blue of the water is clearly recorded.
•The flash is set to 
(Force flash) or

When shooting snowy scenes or other places where the whole screen appears white, use this mode to prevent sunken colors and record clear and sharp images.

(Force flash) or 
(No flash).
