One-Touch Portrait Mode

Taking Pictures in the One-Touch Portrait Mode

For portrait shots, press A when the camera is in the auto mode, scene mode, movie mode and anti-shake mode. The following features are automatically activated:

•Portrait: Portrait subjects stand out clearly.

•Face-priority AF: The camera automatically detects and focuses on faces.

•Auto red-eye reduction: Reduces “red-eye” caused by the flash (c 24). Macro close-up is not available in one-touch portrait mode.

Press A again to return to the shooting mode selected in the shooting- mode selection menu.

1 Press A.

• The K guide is displayed.

ON/

2 Frame a picture using the Kguide.

•When the camera detects a face, the guide is dis- played with a double yellow border.

•When the camera detects more than one face, the closest face is framed by a double border and the rest by a single border. The camera focuses on the face framed by the double border and adjusts exposure accordingly. If the camera loses its ability to detect a face (for example, because the subject has looked away from the camera), borders are no longer displayed and monitor display returns to that shown in step 1.

3 Press the shutter-release button halfway.

• Focus and exposure are set, and the double border turns green.

4 Press the shutter-release button the rest of the way down to take a picture.
