Creative Filters
If you want to experiment even more with your photos, Canon's Creative Filters are mixed in with the camera's other shooting modes. These include a Toy Camera Effect (left from top to bottom: standard, warm, and cool), Monochrome, Super Vivid, and Poster Effect (right from top to bottom). You'll also find Color Accent (scene is monochrome except one user-selectable color), Color Swap (replace one color for another e.g. red for yellow), Fish-eye Effect, and Miniature Effect.
(Note: These were taken with the Canon PowerShot A3300 IS, but the 500 HS produces similar results.)
