The following sections cover each of the predefined scene modes. Consider, the camera will set its shutter speed, aperture, exposure, and other criteria to best record the selected scene. As mentioned earlier, you will still have the option to override the camera’s selected values using the Exposure Compensation function. In addition, you can make changes to command settings within the main menu. But in most cases, the settings applied will give you a quality picture or video for the subject you desire to record.

The Scene Mode sets the optimum exposure and hue to obtain the desired picture. Select the Scene Mode by selecting the SCN icon on the mode dial. For this mode, you can choose from the scenarios listed in.

The predefined scene modes available for the Scene Mode
Screen Icon	Predefined Scene Mode	Description
	SUNSET	This mode captures the rich red hues featured in sunsets. Can also be used for sunrises. Use this mode if you are unable to get i-Sunset to register in the Intelligent Auto Mode.
	PARTY	This mode captures the natural hues for people and objects in both the foreground and background. Great for weddings, parties, and other indoor activities.
	BABY 1	This mode offers you an opportunity to enter the child’s name and birth date. Once they’re entered, each time BABY1 Mode is selected, the child’s name and calculated age is displayed on the screen and will be stored with the picture for playback and print purposes. When required, the flash’s strength is reduced. The camera automatic focus is set to AF Tracking so the camera can maintain exposure and focus as the baby moves. Note: This is not the same as Face Recognition and does not identify the baby through the software. The subject could actually be of anything, but the purpose is for the user to group all of one baby’s pictures together under BABY1 and another baby’s pictures under BABY2. Use this choice when Intelligent Auto Mode was unable to recognize a specific baby in the image or you have not registered the baby’s face in the Face Recognition software.
	BABY 2	This mode is the same as BABY1. BABY2 Mode offers you an additional opportunity to enter in another child’s name and birth date. See BABY1 for additional specifics.
	PET	This mode offers you an opportunity to enter one pet’s name and birth date. Once they’re entered, each time PET Mode is selected, the pet’s name and calculated age is displayed on the screen and will be stored with the picture for playback and print purposes. The camera’s automatic focus is set to AF Tracking so the camera can maintain exposure and focus on a rapidly moving pet. Note: As with BABY1 and BABY2, you can assign the PET predefined scene mode to anything. The camera software does not recognize the pet, only that you have selected the PET mode.
	PERIPHERAL DEFOCUS	This mode allows the focus to be set on the subject and the background to be blurred to further enhance the subject. This uses 1-area-focuing auto focus. The user can position the location of the area to be focused via the directional arrow buttons or touching the screen.
