NOTE

•The current “Zoom (SR)” (page 56) setting is ignored when shooting with this function.

•With this BEST SHOT scene, the flash setting automatically becomes ? (Flash Off).

•The desired background blur effect may not be attained if the camera or subject moves during shooting.

•Depending on the shooting environment, image composition, and subject, this BEST SHOT scene may not be able to produce the desired result.

•If the camera determines that it is unable to blur the background of an image for some reason, it will display the message “Blur processing failed.”. Note, however, that the image will be saved, even if background blurring is not possible.
