Using the Scene Mode

Features

bPortrait

Use this mode for portraits in which the main subject stands out clearly. Portrait subjects exhibit smooth, natural-looking skin tones.

If the camera recognizes a person’s face (front view), the camera will focus on that person (face priority: A 24).

If the camera detects a smiling face of the subject, the smile

indicator increases or decreases.

If more than one face is recognized, the camera focuses on the face closest to the center of the monitor.

If no faces are recognized, focus will be on the center of the screen.

Digital zoom is not available.

Camera focuses at infinity. The focus area or focus indicator (A 8) always glows green when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway. Note, however, that objects in the foreground may not always be in focus.

The AF-assist illumination turns off automatically regardless of the setting of the AF-assist illumination (A 104).
