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 and focuses continuously until focus is locked by pressing

the shutter-release button halfway. The area focused can be changed by the touch shutter (A34) or touch AF/AE (A37).

While the shutter-release button is held down, up to three pictures are taken at a rate of about 0.9 frames per second (fps) when image mode is set to I4000×3000.

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

AF-assist illuminator (A147) does not light.

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

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 recognizes a human face, that face will be

framed by a yellow double border (focus area). See “Face Priority” (A56) for more information.

If more than one face is recognized, 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 (A34, 37).

The camera softens skin tones (in up to three faces) by applying the skin softening function before recording pictures (A73).

If no faces are recognized, the camera focuses on the subject at the center of the screen by pressing the shutter-release button halfway.

Digital zoom is not available.
