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), 
(Move) or 
(Walk) 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 other than the optical zoom.
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
