Sports
- For recording people or objects moving quickly. If the Sports mode is used under a fluorescent
light, the image may flicker. In this case, use the Auto mode for recording.
Portrait
- Creates a shallow depth of field so that the person or subject appears against a softened
background.
- The portrait mode is most effective when used outdoors.
Spotlight
- Prevents overexposure of subject’s face, etc., when strong light strikes the subject, as in a
wedding or on stage.
Beach - When recording seaside or lakeside scenes, the blue water is clearly recorded.
Snow
- When recording a snowy scene that makes the screen all white, this setting prevents sunken
colors and records images clearly.
High Speed - Reduces blurring when recording rapidly moving subjects such as in golf or tennis.
Food
- Records the color of subjects clearly by increasing saturation.
This function is useful when recording items such as foods and fruits.
Waterfall - Recording a splashing waterfall or fountain.

- Necessary settings for shooting are automatically adjusted, but you can also manually adjust
exposure value, shutter speed, etc as desired. You can also set the desired shooting functions
using menus. See pages 76 and 81 for manual settings.
