NOTE

•When composing an image like the ones shown above, make sure that the entire outline of the object you are trying to shoot is enclosed within the monitor screen.

•Make sure the object is against a background that allows its outline to stand out.

•VGA size images are stored as VGA size images. All other size images are stored as 2M (1600x1200 pixels) images.

•Digital zoom is disabled while shooting with a Business Shot scene. However, you can use optical zoom (page 42).

Recording a Self-portrait

With this feature, you can shoot your own self-portrait simply by pointing the camera at your face.

BEST SHOT has two self-portrait scenes from which to choose.

•Self-portrait (1 person): Shoots when the face of at least one person, including you, is detected.

•Self-portrait (2 people): Shoots when the faces of at least two people, including you, are detected.

1.Press [BS] and then select “Self-portrait (1 person)” or “Self-portrait (2 people)”.

2.Press the shutter button all the way down, and

point the camera at yourself.

About three seconds after you press the shutter button, the camera will go into Auto Shutter standby and start face detection. The camera will go into Auto Shutter standby and detect the faces of any people in the image.

When the camera is able to detect the number of required individuals, it will release the shutter automatically when it determines there is no image blur.

•The camera will emit a shutter sound and the front lamp will flash twice when the shutter is released.
