Feature 5High Performance Shooting Functions

The high-performance shooting functions of the S2980 give you total versatility and the optimum setting for any scene.

Motion Panorama

Take panorama photos as simply as 1, 2, 3! The camera automatically stitches together three consecutive shots, with simple in-frame guidance to ensure the images are aligned. The resulting image is saved to the memory card as an impressive panoramic photo.

Natural Light and with Flash

Can't decide whether it's best to use flash? Choose this mode, press the shutter and automatically capture the same scene twice: once with high sensitivity and natural light, and the second time with Intelligent Flash. Later choose one or keep both!

  • Natural Light
  • With Flash

Tracking Auto Focus

Keep fast moving subjects in the frame and in focus, even at 5x zoom. Great for capturing dynamic close-ups.

Instant Zoom

A function to follow moving subjects in standard wide view for easy framing at high zoom settings. With a single press of the button, the subject tracked within the selected frame on the LCD will be captured and saved at a high zoom ratio (1.4x or 2.0x digital zoom).

Zoom Bracketing Mode

Allows three shots to be taken at the single press of a button at varying degrees of magnification (original, 1.4x and 2.0x). This lets you instantly edit on the camera to choose the ideal shot, rather than having to go back to a PC to crop digitally.

Date Stamp Function

Shooting date and time can be embedded in the lower right-hand corner of the image files.
