Shooting according to scene conditions — Scene Selection

You can select from eight different shooting modes (magnifying glass, twilight, twilight portrait, landscape, snow, beach, high- speed shutter and fireworks) in accordance with the shooting conditions. The camera automatically makes the optimum settings to match the scene, making it easy to shoot high quality images even under difficult conditions.

Magnifying glass mode

The subject appears on the LCD screen magnified by up to 3.3×. This lets you see details that would otherwise be difficult to confirm with the naked eye.
