My Mode

Your favorite settings can be saved in MY MODE SETUP (in the menu’s
SETUP). Customized settings are activated when the power is turned on in
the

mode. Settings such as aperture value, zoom position, etc. can be

customized. In the

mode, you can select exposure mode (shooting

mode) from P, A, S, M or S-Prg. Settings can be specified with the camera’s
setting menus.
In MY MODE SETUP, you can create and save up to 4 different My Mode
settings. Items in the short cut menu can be different from those in the P or
S-Prg mode short cut menus.

“MY MODE SETUP” (P. 151)

Setting the shutter speed higher lets you
capture fast-moving action without blur. The
subject will be clear and sharp, as if it is not
moving.

Setting the shutter speed lower blurs a
moving subject, giving the impression
of movement.
