Shooting Suited for the Scene

More on Shooting

B Note on Scene Auto Selector Mode

Depending upon shooting conditions, the camera may not select the desired scene mode. Should

this occur, switch to A (Auto) mode (A26) or choose the desired scene mode manually (A45).

C Focusing in Scene Auto Selector Mode

• In scene auto selector mode, the camera detects and focuses on a face (see “Shooting with Face

Priority” (A91) for more information).

• When the shooting mode icon d is displayed or when i (close-up) mode is in use, the

camera will automatically focus on the area (one of nine) containing the subject closest to the

camera. This is similar to the Auto setting of AF area mode (A90).

C Night Landscape Shooting in Scene Auto Selector Mode

When the setting is switched to g (night landscape) in scene auto selector mode, the mood of the

night landscape is captured with a slow shutter speed (continuous shooting is not performed), unlike

Night landscape (A49) in scene mode. We recommend stabilizing the camera with a tripod.

when using a tripod to stabilize the camera during

C Note on the Flash

When the built-in flash is lowered, the flash setting is fixed to off and W appears at the top of the

monitor. In situations where flash is needed, such as in dark locations or when the subject is backlit,

be sure to raise the built-in flash (A35).

C Functions Available in Scene Auto Selector Mode

• Digital zoom is not available.

• U (auto) (default setting) and W (off) flash mode settings (A34) can be applied.

When U (auto) is applied, the camera automatically chooses the optimum flash mode setting

for the scene mode it has selected. When W (off ) is applied, the flash does not fire, regardless of

shooting conditions.

• Self-timer (A37) and exposure compensation (A41) settings can be adjusted.

• The p (focus mode) button (A12, 38) on the multi selector is not available.

• If you press the d button to display the x (scene auto selector) menu, you can set Image

quality (A75) and Image size (A76). Changes made to the image quality and image size

settings apply to all shooting modes (except for sport continuous mode and shooting mode M).
