Picture Effects Mode
The Canon PowerShot SD500 has a vast array of color modes. For those who like playing with color, but not with computers, this is a great camera. In its color mode, the SD500 offers the following options: Vivid Blue, Vivid Red, Positive Film, Lighter Skin Tone, Darker Skin Tone, Vivid Green and Custom Color. There is also a Color Accent mode that allows the user to pick an object and color and make the rest of the photo black and white, creating the same look that antique photographs achieve. Finally, there is a Color Swap setting that lets users swap the color of their shirts for the color of the sky – or whatever objects they choose. This camera also includes basic color modes: Vivid, Neutral, Low Sharpening, Sepia, and Black & White.
