(GP.240)Shooting with Optimal Settings According to Shooting ConditionsYou can use scene mode to select from among five still image modes and shoot with settings automatically optimized for shooting conditions.HIGH SENSUse when taking pictures in dimly lit places. The LCD monitor also becomes brighter.FIREFIGHTINGUse to capture images under difficult conditions such as the scene of a fire. The focal length is fixed to 2.5 m, allowing you to take clear pictures in a situation where the auto focus would normally produce blurred images due to flames, smoke and water vapor. Increasing the ISO sensitivity extends the range of the flash, and prevents camera shake by controlling the shutter speed even when the flash is not used. The sharpness level is also increased in this mode and the LCD monitor becomes brighter and is suited for firefighting.SKEW COR MODEUse to straighten a rectangular object, such as a message board or business card, shot at an angle to make it look as if it were shot squarely. For detailed operations, see P.42.In skew correction mode, choose from [F1280], [N1280], and [N640] for [PIC QUALITY/SIZE].

(GP.57) You can set the image size to either 3264 × 2448 or 2048 × 1536 pixels. (GP.61)ZOOM MACROUse when taking a further close-up picture during macro shooting.
