This guy used a Nikon 880, a digital camera. It would be interesting to know which "SCENE" he chose.

"Nikon Coolpix 880 Review, Phil Askey, August 2000

Review based on a production Nikon Coolpix 880 (Firmware E880 V1.0)

. The 880 also has a few features the 990 doesn't, most notably the SCENE modes which will make it easy for beginners and more advanced users alike to select a preset shooting mode which puts the camera into the correct setup for shooting a particular scene. In addition to this it appears that the SCENE modes also apply differing colour / contrast settings to achieve a certain "look" depending on which SCENE you've chosen. Scene shooting modes provided: * Portrait * Party/Indoor * Night Portrait * Beach/Snow * Landscape * Sunset * Night Landscape * Fireworks Show * Close up (macro) * Copy (black & white) * Back light"
