(Soft Snap) | Allows you to shoot images with a softer atmosphere for portraits and flowers, etc.
(Anti Motion Blur) | Allows you to shoot indoor shots without using the flash to reduce subject blur.
(Landscape) | Allows easy shooting of distant scenes by focusing in the distance. Shoots vivid blue sky and flora colors.
(Backlight Correction HDR) | Allows you to shoot three images having different exposures to create a single image with a greater range of gradation.
(Night Portrait) | Allows you to shoot sharp images of people with the night view in the background without compromising the atmosphere.
(Night Scene) | Allows you to shoot night scenes at far distance without losing the dark atmosphere of the surroundings.
(Hand-held Twilight) | Allows you to shoot night scenes with less noise without using a tripod.
(High Sensitivity) | Allows you to shoot images without a flash under low light conditions, reducing blur.
(Gourmet) | Allows you to shoot food arrangements in delicious and bright color.
(Pet) | Allows you to shoot images of your pet with the best settings.
(Beach) | Allows you to shoot scenes on the beach in bright and vivid colors even under the sunlight.
(Snow) | Allows you to record clear images preventing sunken colors in snowy scenes or other places where the whole screen appears white.
(Fireworks) | Allows you to record fireworks in all their splendor.
(Hi-Speed Shutter) (DSC-TX66 only) | Allows you to capture fast moving subjects outdoors or in other bright places. The shutter speed becomes faster, so images shot in dark places become darker.

Notes

- When you shoot images using (Night Portrait), (Night Scene) or (Fireworks) mode, the shutter speed is slower and the images tend to blur. To prevent blurring, the use of a tripod is recommended.

- Some Scene Selection modes are available also in movie mode, but the selectable modes are limited. [Details]
