Picture-taking modes

Use this mode	For
Auto	General picture-taking—offers an excellent balance of image quality and ease of use.
Scene	Point-and-shoot simplicity when taking pictures under special conditions. (See Scene modes.)
Portrait	Full-frame portraits of people. Allows the subject to be sharp and the background to be indistinct. For best results, position your subject at least 6 ft (2 m) away and fill the frame with a head and shoulder pose. Use Telephoto to exaggerate background blur.
Sport	Subjects that are in motion. Shutter speed is fast.
Landscape	Far-away scenes. The camera uses infinity auto-focus. Auto-focus framing marks are not available in Landscape.
Close-up	Close range. Use available light instead of flash if possible. The camera automatically sets the focus distance depending on the zoom position.
Video	Capturing video with sound. (See Taking a video.)
