APoint and Shoot

When this camera is used for the first time, the shooting mode is set to A Point and shoot. When you frame a picture, the camera automatically determines the scene and selects the optimal settings, allowing you to take pictures with ease.

A Point and shoot is the default shooting mode for this camera.

The area of the frame that the camera focuses on varies depending on the composition of the picture.

When the camera detects a person’s face, it focuses on that face (A60). The skin softening feature makes the skin tones in people’s faces appear smoother (A41).

The flash may fire when shooting in low light.

When shooting in low light, the use of a tripod is recommended.

The camera does not detect the scene when the digital zoom is being used.
