Some scenes can be selected directly from the Mode Dial, and others are accessed via the Scene Select menu. Is there a difference?
Yes. When using a Scene that is selected via the Mode Dial, the Super Control Panel remains active so that the photographer may change certain settings, such as White Balance or ISO. The Super Control Panel is accessed by pressing the [OK] button. When using a Scene that is selected via the Scene Select menu (by turning the Mode Dial to ART/SCENE and then using the arrow buttons to select Scene mode and to choose the desired scene), most camera settings are controlled by the camera and so are fixed. The Super Control Panel is not available. Instead, pressing the [OK] button invokes the Scene Select menu so that a new Scene can be selected.
