Video camera settings overview
Scenes
The Scenes feature helps you to quickly set up the camera for common situations using pre-programmed
scenes. The camera determines a number of settings for you to fit the selected scene, ensuring the best
possible video.
Off
The Scenes feature is off and you can shoot videos manually.
Portrait
Use for portrait videos. Settings are optimised to give slightly softer skin tones.
Landscape
Use for videos of landscapes. The camera focuses on distant objects. When Landscape is selected,
focus mode is changed to Single auto focus.
Night
When turned on, light sensitivity is increased. Use in poorly lit environments. Videos of fast-moving
objects may get blurred. Hold your hand steady, or use a support. Turn off night mode when lighting
conditions are good, to improve the video quality.
Beach and snow
Use in bright environments to avoid underexposed videos.
Sports
Use for videos of fast-moving objects. Short exposure time minimises motion blurring.
Party
Use for indoor videos in poorly lit environments. This scene picks up indoor background lighting or
candlelight. Videos of fast-moving objects may get blurred. Hold your hand steady, or use a support.
Photo light
Use the light to record videos when lighting conditions are poor or when there is a backlight.
On
Off
Sometimes the video quality can be better without a light, even if lighting conditions are poor.
Metering
This function automatically determines a well-balanced exposure by measuring the amount of light striking
the image you want to capture.
Centre
Adjust the exposure to the centre of the image.
Average
Calculate the exposure based on the amount of light striking the whole image.
