Shooting Features

Scene Mode (Shooting Suited to Scenes)

OPet portrait

Use this mode for taking portraits of pets (dogs or cats). When the camera detects the face of a dog or cat, it focuses on the face and automatically releases the shutter (pet portrait auto release).

•On the screen displayed when OPet portrait is selected for scene mode, select Single or Continuous.

-Single: The camera takes one image at a time.

-Continuous (default setting): When focus is acquired on the detected face, 3 images

can be captured (Continuous shooting speed: about 1.2 fps when the image mode setting is P4608×3456). F icon is displayed in the monitor during shooting when Continuous is selected.

•A double border (focus area) is displayed around the

detected face, and it turns green when the focus is acquired. Up to five faces can be detected. When the camera detects more than one face, the double border is displayed around the largest face, and single borders are displayed around the others.

• When no pet faces are detected, the shutter can be released by pressing the shutter-release button.

-The camera focuses on the subject at the center of the frame when no pet faces are detected.

-When Continuous is selected, up to 6 images are captured at a rate of about 1.3 fps while the shutter-release button is held down (when the image mode setting is P

4608×3456).

•Press the multi selector J (n) to change auto release settings.

-Pet portrait auto release (default setting): The camera automatically releases the shutter when it focuses on the detected face. While Pet portrait auto release is selected, the d icon is displayed in the shooting screen.

-OFF: The shutter is released only when the shutter-release button is pressed.

•Digital zoom is not available.

•Factors such as the distance between the pet and the camera, the orientation or brightness of the face, and the speed at which the pet is moving may prevent the camera from detecting the faces of dogs or cats or may cause the camera to display borders around faces other than those of dogs or cats.

•Pet portrait auto release turns off automatically when:

-Five bursts have been taken.

-Internal memory or the memory card is full.

To continue taking pictures with Pet portrait auto release, press the multi selector J (n) and change the setting again.
