Use this setting when you wish to take
a photograph with the subject in the
foreground
clearly
emphasized
against
a blurred background.
• By pressing holding down the shutter button,
continuous shooting is possible.
• If the subject is dark or in back-lit conditions
and the AE indicator in the viewfinder blinks,
please use the flash. (See page 33)
Set the command dial to .
The picture-taking procedure is the same as with
the fully automatic mode. (See page 21)
If the subject’s head and shoulders fill up most of the center of the viewfinder, an effective
background blur can be achieved. Background blur will improve as the subject moves
farther away from the background.
A more effective background blur can be achieved with a telephoto lens. If it is a zoom
lens, set the lens to the telephoto setting (80mm in the case of a 35-80mm lens).
