The Scene Modes
The Scene modes are groups of settings that are applied to an image to match the scene that you are shooting. Unlike Scene Intelligent Auto, which attempts to determine the scene for you and adjust the camera settings on your behalf, the Scene modes require you to choose the appropriate scene based on your needs.
In the past, the Mode dial on most Canon DSLRs displayed an icon for each Scene mode. On the 6D’s Mode dial, they’re rolled into a single icon: SCN. To change between the modes, press the Quick Control button on the back of your camera and hit the Set button on the uppermost option (A) (B).
