Shooting – The Basics

The Basics

z A custom white balance setting (p. 85) cannot 

be set in 

 mode. To use a custom white 

balance setting, first set it in another Shooting 
mode.

z The settings in place for the first image are 

locked in and cannot be changed for 
subsequent shots.

z A TV cannot be used as the monitor for 

shooting in this mode.

See page 159 for settings that can be 
changed in this mode.

 Special Scene Mode

By simply selecting one of the following 8 
modes, you can shoot the image with the 
most appropriate settings for the scene.

 Foliage

Appropriate for shooting images with 
flowers, leaves or trees to enhance 
color.

 Snow

Appropriate for shooting the subject 
against the backdrop of snowy 
mountains while preventing dark 
subjects and bluish backgrounds.

 Beach

Appropriate for shooting scenes by 
the sea or on sunlit sandy beaches 
while preventing dark subjects.

 Fireworks

Appropriate for shooting fireworks 
clearly with the optimal exposure.

 Underwater

Appropriate for shooting images with 
the Waterproof Case WP-DC60 
(sold separately). This mode uses an 
optimal white balance setting to 
reduce bluish tones and record 
images with natural hues. The flash 
is controlled to fire as seldom as 
possible.
