Flash

Use the flash to take photos when lighting conditions are poor or when there is a

backlight.

Auto
The camera automatically determines if the lighting conditions require the use of a flash.
Fill flash
Use this setting when the background is brighter than the subject. This removes unwanted dark
shadows.
Off
The flash is turned off. Sometimes photo quality can be better without the flash, even if lighting
conditions are poor. Taking a good photo without using the flash requires a steady hand. Use the
self-timer to avoid blurred photos.
Red-eye reduction
Reduces the red colour of eyes when taking a photo.
Self-timer

With the self-timer you can take a photo without holding the device. Use this function

to take self-portraits, or group photos where everyone can be in the photo. You can

also use the self-timer to avoid shaking the camera when taking photos.

On (10 sec.)
Set a 10-second delay from when you tap the camera screen until the photo is taken.
On (2 sec.)
Set a 2-second delay from when you tap the camera screen until the photo is taken.
Off
The photo is taken as soon as you tap the camera screen.
Focus mode

The focus function controls which part of a photo should be sharp. When continuous

autofocus is on, the camera keeps adjusting focus so that the area within the yellow

focus frame stays sharp.

Single autofocus
The camera automatically focuses on the selected subject. Continuous autofocus is on. Touch and
hold the camera screen until the yellow focus frame turns blue, indicating that the focus is set. The
photo is taken when you release your finger.
Multi autofocus
The focus is automatically set on several areas of the image. Touch and hold the camera screen
until the yellow focus frame turns blue, indicating that the focus is set. The photo is taken when you
release your finger. Continuous autofocus is off.
Face detection
The camera automatically detects up to five human faces, indicated by frames on the screen. The
camera automatically focuses on the nearest face. You can also select which face to focus on by
tapping it on the screen. When you tap the camera screen, a blue frame shows which face is
selected and in focus. Face detection cannot be used for all scene types. Continuous autofocus is
on.
Touch focus
Touch a specific area on the camera screen to set the area of focus. Continuous autofocus is off.
Touch and hold the camera screen until the yellow focus frame turns blue, indicating that the focus
is set. The photo is taken when you release your finger.

This setting is only available in Normal capturing mode.

Exposure value
Determine the amount of light in the photo you want to take. A higher value indicates an increased
amount of light.
