•Depending on shooting conditions, even if the camera detects a face on the monitor at the time of shooting, effects of the skin softening function may not be visible, and areas other than the face may be processed.

•The extent of skin softening effect that is applied cannot be set.

•Skin softening can also be applied to pictures after they have been taken (A139).
