White Balance:
White balance is used to preserve natural colors under different types of
lighting. You can select
Auto, Direct Sunlight, Shade, "Daylight" fluorescent lamps, "Warm White" fluorescent
lamps, "Cool White" fluorescent lamps, Incandescent light, Underwater,
and Custom (set by the camera for the specific lighting for the shot).
Exposure Compensation: You can alter the exposure from the
value suggested by the camera, making pictures brighter or darker. You can
adjust the exposure a total of 13 steps from -2.0 to +2.0 EV in 1/3 EV steps.
Continuous Shooting: You can capture motion in a series of
pictures taken as long as you press and hold the shutter button. There are five
options for continuous shooting:
- Top n: The camera captures photos while the shutter
button is pressed. You can choose the frame rate (11, 8, 5, or 3 fps) and maximum number of shots
per burst (options depend upon the image size).
- Best Frame Capture: The camera captures a series of
pictures, starting before and ending after the shutter button is pressed.
The camera saves 8 or 16 shots, some before the shutter button was pressed, and
some after.
- AE Bracketing: Each time the shutter button is pressed
the camera takes three shots; one using the metered value for exposure, the
second overexposed by the step selected (1/3, 2/3, or 1 EV), and the third
underexposed by the same amount.
- Film Simulation Bracketing: Each time the shutter
button is pressed the camera takes three shots at different film simulation
settings: Provia/Standard for the first, Velvia/Vivid for the second, and
Astia/Soft for the third.
- Dynamic Range Bracketing: Each time the shutter button
is pressed, the camera takes three shots at different dynamic range
settings: 100% for the first, 200% for the second, and 400% for the third.
Self-timer: The
camera gives you the choice of a 10-second or 2-second self timer.
Auto Focus Modes: You can choose from the following focus
modes:
-
Center: The camera focuses on the subject in the center of the frame.
-
Multi: When the shutter button is pressed halfway, the camera detects
high-contrast subjects near the center of the frame and selects the focus
area automatically.
-
Continuous: When the shutter button is pressed halfway, the camera continuously
adjusts focus to reflect changes in the distance to the main subject in the
focus frame.
-
Tracking: The focus frame is displayed in the center of the
monitor, and once set, will track the moving subject, keeping it in focus.
Focus Range: The focus
ranges according to shooting mode are as follows:

0.4' to 12.1'
(Wide) and 2.9' to 7.8' (Telephoto) with sensitivity set to Auto. This Super Intelligent Flash
system instantly analyzes the scene based on the brightness of the subject, its
position in the frame, and its distance from the camera. The flash output and
sensitivity are adjusted to make sure the exposure is correct. Red-eye removal minimizes the
"red-eye" effect, and is available for each flash mode. You can choose from the following flash modes:
-
Auto: flash fires
automatically as required by the shooting conditions

Flash Off: You can close the pop-up flash when flash
photography is prohibited, or to capture natural lighting under dim light.
Intelligent Face Detection: When Face Detection is On,
the camera automatically detects human faces anywhere in the frame and sets the
focus and exposure for shots that emphasize portrait subjects. This mode will
prevent the camera from focusing on the background when taking group portraits
or self portraits.
Light Metering:
When Face Detection is off, you can select one of three Metering modes:
- Multi: light
metering where the camera automatically assesses the scene and selects the
optimum exposure.
- Spot: light metering where
the exposure is optimized for the center of the image
- Average: light metering
where an average value for the entire image is used.
Voice Memos: You can add voice
memos of up to 30 seconds each to still images. The voice memos are recorded in
the WAV format. During playback, you can pause/resume, stop, fast-forward and
rewind the voice memos.
Rating Pictures: As you view your pictures, you can rate
them from zero to five stars. These ratings can later be used for image search
by their ratings.
Viewing Images: Images can be
played back one-at-a-time or in a variety of multi-frame views. Multi-frame
options include a 5-frame cascading display (two previous and two following
frames cascaded behind the highlighted image), a side-by-side two-frame display
(with smaller thumbnails of the previous and next frames, 9-image grid (3 x 3)
and a 100-image grid (10 x 10) of micro-thumbnails. In the 9- and 100-image grid
views, the highlighted image is slightly enlarged.
Photobook Assist: You can create books from your favorite
photos. You can select individual photos or all available photos to put into a
photobook. You can also use the criteria from the image search categories (date,
face, favorites, scene, or type of data) to choose which photos to put into the
photobook.
Playback Zoom/Cropping: You can
enlarge a still image in the monitor according to the image quality (size).
After you have zoomed in and scrolled the picture to the desired composition,
you can create a cropped image of a picture. Copies are saved at Medium, Small,
