Picture Quality for Long Exposures
At longer shutter speeds the camera will automatically take a
second exposure with the shutter closed in order to measure
and reduce the noise (grainy look) in the image. In these cases,
the exposure will seem to take twice as long as expected. For
example, in a 1-second exposure, the Image Display will stay
dark for 2 seconds until the noise reduction frame is exposed.
This means that at longer shutter speeds, you may not be able
to take quite as many shots back-to-back.
Sunset
The focus starts at infinity and the flash is set to
Flash
Off
. This mode improves the saturation of sunset
colors and retains the warmth of the scene with a bias
towards the orange colors of the sunset.
Aperture
Priority
Av
This mode lets you select the F-number (aperture)
setting in
Live View
using the
buttons, while the
camera selects the best shutter speed. This allows you
to control the depth of field (for example to blur the
background). Use the
Aperture Priority
mode when
you want specific control over the aperture.
Panorama
This mode allows you to shoot a series of overlapping
frames for stitching into one panoramic image using
the included computer software. Use
Panorama
mode
for landscapes, such as mountain ranges, or group
pictures where you need to capture a wide shot that
one image cannot capture. Flash is set to
Flash Off
in
this mode. (See
