Shooting Suited to Scenes (Scene Mode)

dSports

Use this mode for dynamic action shots that freeze the action in a single shot and record motion in a series of pictures.

•The camera focuses on the subject at the center of the

frame. The area focused can be changed by the touch shutter (A41) or touch AF/AE (A44). The camera continuously adjust the focus until the shutter-release button is pressed halfway to lock the focus.

•While the shutter-release button is held down, up to 4 pictures are taken at a rate of about 0.9 frames per second (fps) when image mode is set to R4320×3240.

•Focus, exposure, and white balance are fixed at the values determined with the first picture in each series.

•The maximum frame rate with continuous shooting may vary depending upon the current image mode setting, the memory card used, or shooting condition.

•Continuous shooting is disabled and only one picture can be taken at a time when the shutter is released using the Touch shutter function (A41).

•The flash does not fire and the flash mode is disabled.

•AF-assist illuminator (A151) does not light.

Use this mode for portraits taken at sunset or at night. The flash fires to light the portrait subject while preserving background lighting to achieve a natural balance between the main subject and background ambience.

•When the camera detects a human face, that face will be

framed by a yellow double border (focus area). See “Face Detection” (A50) for more information.

•If more than one face is detected, the face nearest to the camera will be framed by a

yellow double border (focus area) and the other faces by a single border. Tap the face framed by a single border to change the focus area to that face (A41, 44).

•The camera softens skin tones (in up to three faces) by applying the skin softening function before recording pictures (A74).

•If no faces are detected when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the camera focuses on the subject at the center of the frame.

•Digital zoom is not available.

•The flash mode setting is fixed at fill flash with slow sync with red-eye reduction.

•Use the scene effect adjustment slider (A63) to adjust picture brightness.
