Q: Indicates pictures shot in this scene mode are processed automatically to reduce noise, and

therefore may take more time to save.

b Portrait

Q

Use this mode for taking portraits in which the main subject
stands out clearly.
The camera automatically detects and focuses on a face (see

“Shooting with Face Priority” (

A91) for more information).

If the camera detects multiple faces, the camera focuses on the face closest to the camera.
After the skin softening feature makes the subject's skin appear smoother (up to three

people), record the image (

A56).

If no face is recognized, the camera will focus on the subject in the center of the frame.
Digital zoom is not available.
