“One button, one function” design principle
Controlling the camera becomes child’s play. All essential functions like shooting, playback and viewing on the LCD, as well as erasing, are easily activated via a single button.

Guide function
The general purpose and recommended use of the various camera modes and menu options are briefly explained directly on the LCD. This makes shooting easier and means users will rarely need to consult the manual – a real benefit for photographers when on the go, as well as those looking for a short theoretical briefing without having to carry or consult guidebooks.

High ISO setting
A special shooting mode, where the camera automatically increases ISO sensitivity to allow shorter shutter speeds – which helps to avoid image blur caused by camera shake or by fast-moving objects.
