If you want to select the other Scene Selection mode, select from MENU.

(Soft Skin)	Allows you to shoot faces for smoothness.
(Soft Snap)	Allows you to shoot images with a softer atmosphere for portraits and flowers, etc.
(Anti Motion Blur)	Allows you to shoot indoor shots without using the flash to reduce subject blur.
(Landscape)	Allows easy shooting of distant scenes by focusing in the distance. Shoots vivid blue sky and flora colors.
(Backlight Correction HDR)	Allows you to shoot three images having different exposures to create a single image with a greater range of gradation. The camera combines the dark parts of an image taken with a bright exposure setting and the bright parts of an image taken with a dark exposure setting.
(Twilight Portrait)	Allows you to shoot sharp images of people with the night view in the background without compromising the atmosphere.
(Twilight )	Allows you to shoot night scenes at far distance without losing the dark atmosphere of the surroundings.
(Hand-held Twilight)	Allows you to shoot night scenes with less noise without using a tripod.
(High Sensitivity)	Allows you to shoot images without a flash under low light conditions, reducing blur.
(Gourmet)	Shifts to Macro mode, allowing you to shoot food arrangements in delicious and bright color.
(Pet)	Allows you to shoot images of your pet with the best settings.
(Beach)	Allows you to record the blue of the water clearly when shooting seaside or lakeside scenes.
(Snow)	Allows you to record clear images preventing sunken colors in snowy scenes or other places where the whole screen appears white.
(Fireworks)	Allows you to record fireworks in all their splendor.

Notes

When you shoot images using (Twilight Portrait), (Twilight ) or (Fireworks) mode, the shutter speed is slower and the images tend to blur. To prevent blurring, the use of a tripod is recommended.

Some Scene Selection modes are available also in movie mode, but the selectable modes are limited. [Details]

You may not be able to set some functions or MENU items depending on the selected REC mode. For details, see “Functions not available in some REC modes” [Details] and “MENU items not available in some REC modes.” [Details]
