Using BEST SHOT

Using BEST SHOT

BEST SHOT provides you with a collection of sample “scenes” that show a variety of 
different types of shooting conditions. When you need to change the setup of the 
camera, simply find the scene that matches what you are trying to achieve, and the 
camera sets up for it automatically. This helps to minimize the chance of ruined 
images due to poor exposure and shutter speed settings.
