Shooting in 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.

The camera detects and focuses on a face looking toward the camera (Shooting with Face Priority A 92).

If the camera detects multiple faces, the camera focuses on the face closest to the camera.

If no face is recognized, the camera will focus on the subject in the center focus area.

Digital zoom is not available.

dSports

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

While the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the camera focuses continuously until focus is acquired and locked.

While the shutter-release button is held down, pictures are

shot at a rate of about 1.0 frames per second (fps) when image mode is set to [INormal (4000)]. This rate is maintained for up to 5 pictures.

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