In addition to X (Auto shooting) mode explained in “Basic Photography”

(c18), the COOLPIX P1/P2 has other shooting modes which are P (Programmed

auto) mode, A (Aperture-priority auto) mode, and b (Scene) mode. Use the

mode dial to select the mode.

Some functions can be set when taking pictures with all the modes and some

functions can only be set in P and A modes.

Before rotating the mode dial to a Shooting mode (X, P, A, b) and taking pictures, set the

Z Image mode, W sensitivity and d White balance.

The functions that can be set depend on the scene mode in use (c34). See Scene mode for more

mode (c86).

Pressing m in b (Scene) mode displays the Scene menu (c34).
