Portrait Mode

This mode blurs the background to make the subject stand out.

Set the Mode Dial to <>.

● The way you take pictures is the same as in <> (Full Auto) mode. (→38)

➡ The AF mode is automatically set to <ONE SHOT>, the drive mode to <>, and the metering mode to < >.

The image quality can also be set. (→50, 118)

●Head-and-shoulder shots give the best background blur effect. Also, the farther

the subject is from the background, the more blurred the background will appear.

●Use a telephoto lens to blur the background even more. If you use a zoom lens, its longest focal length is the most effective (for example, a 24-85mm lens set to 85 mm).
