• (Snapshot mode)
Use this mode to record still images. This is the mode you
should normally use for image recording.
• (BEST SHOT mode)
This mode makes camera setup as easy as selecting the
applicable sample scene. Simply select one of 22 sample
scenes, and the camera will automatically be configured
with the settings required to record a similar image (page
100).
• (Aperture Priority AE mode)
In this mode, you select the aperture, and other settings
are adjusted accordingly (page 94).
• (Shutter Speed Priority AE mode)
In this mode, you select the shutter speed, and other
settings are adjusted accordingly (page 96).
• (Manual Exposure mode)
This mode gives you total control over aperture and
shutter speed settings (page 97).
• (Past Movie mode)
Pressing the shutter button starts recording from five
seconds prior to the point the button is pressed. Use this
mode when you want to make sure you do not miss fast-
moving action (page 107).
