Select Landscape mode for scenic,
landscape, or travel photographs.
Landscape photography generally
requires a large depth-of-field to
make sure the entire scene is in focus.
To achieve this, the camera sets the
smallest aperture possible while
maintaining a fast shutter speed to
prevent blur.
Press and hold the subject-
program button.
Turn either control dial until
appears alone in the data
panel.
Release the subject-program
button.
Tips:
Use a wide angle lens to create a feeling of depth in the photograph.
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.
Use Portrait mode when
photographing people. Portrait
photography benefits from a shallow
depth-of-field. A shallow depth-of-
field separates the subject from the
background. In portrait mode, the
camera is set to achieve this effect.
Press and hold the subject-
program button.
Turn either control dial until
appears alone in the data
panel.
Release the subject-program
button.
Tips:
Use a lens in the mid-telephoto range.
Use flash when your subject is backlit or there are strong shadows
across the face.
