Landscape Mode

This mode is for sweeping scenery, sunsets, etc.

Set the Mode Dial to <

>.

The way you take pictures is the same as in
<

> (Full Auto) mode. (

The AF mode is automatically set to SHOT>, the drive mode to <

> (Single-frame),

and the metering mode to <

>.

If the shutter speed indicator blinks, the shutter speed may be too slow to keep the
picture from being blurred by camera shake. We recommend you use a tripod
when taking landscape pictures. (The shutter speed indicator still blinks if you use
a tripod, but camera shake will not be a problem.)

The built-in flash does not fire in Landscape mode, even if it is raised.

The image quality can also be set. (

A wide-angle lens provides the greatest depth from foreground to background, as
well as a wider image. If you use a zoom lens, its shortest focal length is the most
effective (for example, a 24-85mm lens set to 24 mm).
