Framing Assist

i Portrait Assist

i (portrait assist) mode helps you frame portraits in which the main subject stands out clearly while background details are softened, lending the composition a sense of depth (the degree of softening depends on the amount of light avail- able). A framing assist menu helps you frame off-center sub- jects and compose tall or wide shots and two-person portraits.
