landscape mode


In photography and digital photography, landscape mode is a function of the digital camera that is used when you are taking photos of a scene, not a single object (see “Portrait Mode”). When taking photos in landscape mode, the digital camera will automatically focus on as much of the scene as possible by using a large depth of field. The digital camera may also use a slower shutter speed in some cases.

Other digital camera settings and shooting modes include:

Macro mode to focus on subjects close to the camera lens.
Sports mode to shoot sports and other types of action shots.
Movie mode to capture moving subjects in a video format.
In-camera red-eye fix to auto-correct any incidences red-eye.
Face detection to detect human faces and set the focus and appropriate exposure.

Contrast with Portrait Mode.
