and white balance. The faces

detected by the camera are shown

by square borders.

The camera may not be able to recognize faces in the following

cases:

• When the face is side-view, tilted, or moving

• When the camera is tilted or upside down (the shutter release

button is facing down)

• When the face is partially hidden or at the edge of the frame

• When the face is not clearly visible because of dark

surroundings

• When the subject is too far away (Make sure that the face

appearing in the picture display is vertically longer than one

block marked by the grid guide. GP.42).

Landscape

Use when taking scenery pictures with abundant greenery or blue

sky.

Discreet Mode

Use where lights and sounds emitted by the camera may be

unwelcome. The flash (GP.32), AF auxiliary light (GP.116), and

speaker (GP.116) turn off and flash, AF auxiliary light, and sound

settings can not be adjusted.

Night. Port.

Use when taking portrait pictures against a nightscape. The flash

fires automatically. The shutter speed slows down, so be careful of

camera shake.
