SUBJECT PROGRAM SELECTION
Press the subject-program
button until the subject-program
pointer is under
.
Landscape mode is suited for
photographing landscape, scenic or
travel photographs. Landscape
photography generally requires a
large depth of field to make sure
everything is in focus. In Landscape
mode the camera is automatically set
to the smallest aperture possible
while maintaining a shutter speed
fast enough to prevent blur due to
camera shake.
Tips
• For best results zoom to a wide view or use a wide angle lens and
include a foreground subject or detail to create a feeling of depth in the
picture.
• Use flash when a subject in the foreground is backlit or has strong
shadows across the face. If there is no subject in the foreground, do not
use flash.
• Use a tripod, especially at slower shutter speeds.

Portrait Mode
Portraits have the greatest impact
when a shallow depth-of-field* is
used to separate the subject from
the background. In Portrait mode,
the necessary settings are made
automatically, leaving you free to
capture the perfect expression.
* Depth-of-field is the area in front of
and behind the point you focused on
that appears sharp.
Tips
• For best results use a mid-telephoto lens with a large aperture.
• Use flash when your subject is backlit or there are strong shadows
across the face.
• Lock focus on your subject’s eyes and be ready to capture the perfect
expression.
