Shooting in Scene Mode

Scenes to Suited Shooting

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.

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 INormal (4000).

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

AF-assist illuminator (A128) 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.

The camera recognizes and focuses on a human face. See “Face Priority” (A108) for more information.

If more than one face is recognized, focus will be on the face nearest to the camera.

The camera softens skin tones (in up to three faces) by applying the skin softening function before recording pictures (A50).

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.
