Scene Recognition

Scene Recognition operates in [Intelligent Auto] mode. This function lets the camera automatically recognize the shooting conditions and shoot the image.

In Scene Recognition, the position of an icon displayed on the screen differs depending on whether the camera recognizes a scene or condition. If the camera recognizes a scene, icons and guides such as

(Portrait), (Baby), (Night Portrait), (Night Scene), (Backlight Portrait), (Backlight), (Landscape), (Macro), (Spotlight) or (Low Brightness) are displayed on the first line. If the

camera recognizes a condition, icons such as (Tripod) or (Move) are displayed on the second line. The camera may recognize both a scene and condition, or just one.

Notes

Scene Recognition function does not operate when you use zoom functions. These scenes may not be recognized depending on the situation.

If the environment causes vibrations to be transferred to the camera even when the camera is fixed to a tripod, (Tripod) condition may not be recognized.

Sometimes a slow shutter results when (Tripod) and (Night Scene) condition are recognized at the same time. Keep the camera still during shooting.

Features of Auto shooting modes

In [Superior Auto] mode, the camera shoots a higher-quality image than in [Intelligent Auto] mode. The camera also shoots multiple images based on the recognized scene, then creates a composite of the multiple images (Overlay shooting).

[Program Auto] mode allows you to change various shooting settings, such as the white balance or ISO settings.
