High shutter speed clearly captures fast-moving
action.

ND Effect

ND Effect

A black mist darkens the picture, as when an ND
filter is used. Helps to counter the effects of glare on
the subject.

Electronic 
Fog Filter

FG : FOG

Electronic Fog Filter

Makes the picture look misty white, as when an
external fog filter is attached to the lens. Softens the
image and gives it a “fantasy” look.

Twilight

TWILIGHT

Twilight

Dusk, twilight scenery, fireworks, etc., look more
natural and dramatic. The following happens when
Twilight mode is selected:
• Auto gain control is turned off.
• White Balance is set to “

” (FINE day mode),

but can also be manually changed to another
mode (

Z

 pg. 30).

• Auto Focus becomes available only in the range of

10 m to infinity. To focus when the subject-to-
camera distance is less than 10 m, use manual
focusing (
