Step 2 Frame a Picture

1Ready the camera.

Hold the camera steadily in both hands, keeping your fingers and other objects away from the lens, flash, the projector button, AF assist-illuminator, microphone, and speaker.

Mode Auto Playback: and Photography Basic

When taking pictures in portrait (“tall”) orientation, turn the camera so that the built-in flash is above the lens.

2Frame the picture.

When the camera recognizes a human face, that face will be framed by a yellow double border (default setting).

Up to 12 faces can be recognized. If more than one face is

 

recognized, the face nearest to the camera will be framed

 

in the focus area by a double border, and the other faces

12

will be framed by a single border.

 

The focus area is not displayed when taking pictures of subjects other than people, or when framing a picture in which no face is recognized. Frame the picture so that the intended subject is at or near the center of the frame.
