DSC-HX60V - several Picture Effects missing from menu

[Greenopal]

Hi, I just bought this camera earlier today so have been familiarising myself with it. I've accessed the Picture Effects menu but not all of the effects that are listed in the specifications are on there - I'm missing Miniature, HDR Painting, Watercolor and Illustration (the four effects that I was most interested in trying).

Has anyone else come across this or is it a glitch with my camera?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

You should find those effects via Menu > camera settings > picture effect.

If you can't find them here you should check if there's a firmware update available for your camera.

Cheers

Hi

 Thanks for your reply and your help. I've been using a WX200 for a while and all effects could be accessed whilst using Intelligent Auto but it seems that with the HX60V I have to have it set to P to access all of them (although some can be found whilst on IA) so that was the mistake I was making.

Lovely camera though, I've taken it out whilst walking my dog this morning and I'm very pleased with the results.

Have a good day
