5. Underwater Shooting According to the Scene Type
Underwater shooting modes
Suitable for shooting a scene that
extends across a wide range such as a
school of fish swimming through the
water. Background blues are vividly
reproduced.
The camera incorporates the following shooting scene modes. Select
the one best suited to the underwater scene you are shooting.
Underwater Wide-Angle 1
Suitable for close-up shooting of small
fish and other underwater creatures.
Natural colors underwater are accurately
reproduced. Red tones can be enhanced
by using the flash.
Underwater Macro
• When the Underwater Wide-Angle 1 or Underwater Macro
scene mode is selected, you can easily lock the focus position
(AF lock operation) by pressing the cross-cursor Down button
(AF LOCK button) on the rear of the protector. When the focus
is locked, the AF lock indicator (
) appears on the top left of
the LCD monitor screen of the camera.
TIP
Suitable for shooting a large, slowly moving
subject such as a dolphin or manta.
In many dolphin-watching locations, use of a flash
is not permitted to avoid frightening the dolphins.
Although this mode was originally designed to
work without the flash, it can also be enabled if
required, for example when shooting a manta.
