Exposure Modes on the FinePix S1 Pro
Symbol
Name
Features and Typical Uses
Exposure is controlled entirely by the camera. This
mode is ideal for snapshots and other situations where
you need to take the picture quickly to avoid missing the
moment.
The camera controls the exposure but the photographer
can also influence the outcome using the program shift
(
☞
P.61) and exposure compensation (
☞
P.71)
features.
You set the shutter speed and the camera controls the
exposure. This mode lets you set fast shutter speeds to
freeze fast-moving subjects or slow shutter speeds to
emphasize the subject’s motion.
You set the aperture and the camera controls the
shutter speed. This mode is ideal for shots where you
want to control the depth of field (the range of focus in
front of and behind the subject) for focusing, such as
shots where you want the foreground and background
both in clear focus or shots where you want the
background deliberately out of focus.
This mode lets you set both the shutter speed and the
exposure. Use this mode when none of the other modes
give quite the effect you are looking.
This mode uses a shallow depth of field (the range of
focus in front of and behind the subject) to give portrait
shots that have a soft, blurred backdrop and a feeling of
depth.
This mode uses a very large depth of field (the range of
focus in front of and behind the subject) to give
landscape shots in which both nearby and distant
scenery is in focus.
This mode uses a relatively shallow depth of field to
make the subject stand out and give a soft, blurred
background for beautiful close-up shots.
This mode uses a fast shutter speed to freeze the
action, allowing you to take sports shots that capture the
feeling of rapid motion.
This mode uses exposure control specially tailored to
dimly lit subjects to allow you to take pictures in the
evening or at night. (When you take a picture of a
subject against a night scene background, you can use
the flash to capture both your subject and the
background as they appear naturally.)
