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.
