Capturing in Black-and-White, Sepia Tone, or Document

If you want to take black-and-white pictures, maybe for a brochure or newspaper; in sepia tone to give your picture an antique look; or of documents so text stands out, use the Effects setting. When activated, the camera Preview is automatically turned on so you can see if the effect selected works well with your subject. If you like the effect, go ahead and take the picture. If you do not like the effect, select a different one before taking the picture. Once the picture is taken with the effect, the effect cannot be removed.
