Easy Operation |
Loaded with so many user-friendly features, the Maxxum 5 lets anyone take exceptional pictures--right from the first time they look through its bright viewfinder.
|
- Full-Auto P Mode
-
For point-and-shoot simplicity, just press the P button on your Maxxum 5 and it'll do everything but compose your shot--even fire the flash if necessary.
|
 |
- Subject Program Selection
-
Offering 5 pre-programmed shooting modes, this feature automatically sets shutter speeds and aperture settings by simply pressing the icon button that coincides with your scene. All you do is compose and fire away.
|
 |
- Portrait Mode
-
Calls dramatic attention to a face. By using a large aperture to provide a shallow depth of focus, the subject remains in sharp focus while the background tends to be a blurred palette of color.
|
 |
- Landscape Mode
-
This mode adjusts the settings to ensure that a subject placed in the foreground, as well as scenes or vistas in the background, are both captured in detail and in crisp focus.
|
 |
- Close-Up Mode
-
Perfect for shooting memorabilia, flowers, or anything else that requires getting up close. Macro photography isolates subjects from their backgrounds, giving them a three-dimensional illusion.
|
 |
- Sports Action Mode
- Lets you freeze fast moving subjects with detail and clarity. This mode harnesses the continuous autofocus power of the world's fastest AF system in its class.
|
 |
- Night Portrait Mode
- Providing a more balanced exposure, this mode produces more details in night or in sunset backgrounds. It reduces background darkness by combining the flash with a longer exposure.

Creative Operation |
To indulge your creativity, the Maxxum 5 is equipped with a wide range of sophisticated creative functions which open you to a world of photographic possibilities.
- Aperture/Shutter Priorities & Manual Mode
- For exceptional portraits, landscapes or macro images, switch to A (Aperture Priority) mode and shoot with a superior command of your depth of field. With shutter speeds from 1/4000th of a second to 30 seconds, S (Shutter Priority) mode allows you to go from freezing fast moving subjects in sharp focus to capturing speed-blurred images. For creative nighttime photography, M (Manual) mode gives you total control over shutter release time.
- Exposure Bracketing
- A feature which allows you to capture up to a 3 frame sequence of a scene where each varies slightly in exposure value. It's the perfect solution for difficult lighting situations and when shooting slides, or when you're looking for more creative results.
- Multiple Exposure
- Create compelling and haunting effects by combining two exposures on a single frame. This mode overrides the camera's automatic frame advance--permitting one shot to be placed on top of another.
- Exposure Compensation
-
Add your own creative touch to every shot. This feature allows specific over-and-under exposure selections giving you more control over metering, as well as your end result.
- ISO Automatic & Manual Setting
- Insert a roll of film into the Maxxum 5 and it automatically reads the speed, then sets the proper exposure. If you're feeling creative, you can override the auto setting and manually select a desired speed.
