USING BEST SHOT
The BEST SHOT “High Sensitivity” scene makes it possible for
you to take natural looking images without using the flash, even
when lighting is low
1. In the REC mode, press [BS].
2. Use [S], [T], [W], and [X] to select the “High
Sensitivity” scene and then press [SET].
3. Press the shutter button to shoot the image.
High Sensitivity will remain selected until you select a
different BEST SHOT scene.
IMPORTANT!
• High Sensitivity is disabled following an automatic flash
operation using the “Auto Flash” or “Red Eye” setting, or
while the flash setting is “Flash On” or “Soft Flash”.
• Shooting with High Sensitivity can cause an image to
appear somewhat coarser than normal and can cause
slight deterioration of image resolution.
• The desirable level of image brightness may not be
possible under very dark conditions.
• When shooting with slow shutter speeds, use a tripod to
protect against the effects of hand movement.
• The camera sometimes performs an automatic noise
reduction operation to reduce digital noise in images
recorded under certain lighting conditions. This operation
causes the camera to take longer than normal to store the
image and be ready for the next shot.
