Before Use
Shooting with Your Favorite
Settings (Creative Assist)
Even if you don’t know much about photography, you can select from on-
screen options written in plain English to change the brightness, blur the
background, and take pictures that are all your own. You can also save
your favorite settings and easily load them back in later. Settings can even
be applied from images shot in [
] mode.
When you display images shot in [
] mode, the camera can show you
which [
] mode settings correspond to which camera settings, making it
easier to step up to the Creative Auto shooting modes ([ ], [
], [
],
or [
]).
The following options can be changed.
Background
This lets you define how much to blur the
background. The higher the value this is, the more
blurred the background gets. The lower the value,
the sharper the background.
Brightness
This lets you adjust the image brightness. The
higher this value, the brighter the image is.
Contrast
This lets you adjust the contrast. The higher this
is, the stronger the contrast between light and dark
colors.
Saturation
This lets you define how vivid the colors are. The
higher this value, the more colorful the image;
the lower it is, the more subdued and refined it
becomes.
Color tone
This lets you define the tone of the colors. Higher
values result in warmer colors, while lower ones
make the colors seem colder.
Monochrome
You can choose from five color tones in
Monochrome: [
B/W], [ Sepia], [ Blue],
[ Purple] and [ Green]. Set this to [
] to shoot
in color. If this is set to anything besides [
],
[Saturation] and [Color tone] are not available.
