DIGITAL SCENE SELECTOR
The Digital Scene Selector sets the optimum flash mode, light metering, white balance, and image
processing for specific scene types. When the camera is turned on, the scene selection mode is set to
Auto.
AUTO
LANDSCAPE
NIGHT SCENE
EVENING/
SUNSET
PORTRAIT
This is the default setting. No additional image
processing is performed in this mode.
The Landscape setting is ideal when shooting nature
subjects or architecture. By sharpening the image, the
camera faithfully reproduces fine textures.
Digital noise reduction is used to allow crisper clearer
images to be captured at night.
The white balance is automatically adjusted for the
scene, making it possible to capture the natural warm
tones of the setting sun.
The Portrait selection reduces noise and softens edges.
As named, this setting is best suited for portraiture.
SLOW-SYNC
In this mode a slower shutter speed, as low as 2
seconds, with rear-flash sync is used and noise is
reduced. This allows ambient light in the background to
appear in the picture. Use of a tripod is recommended.
