In [Effect], you can set the level of background motion blur. Set to [Effect: max] for a
slower shutter speed and more background motion blur around subjects. If subject blur
is excessive, reduce it by setting [Effect] to [Effect: med] or [Effect: min].
Use the subject blur guide.
Set [Subject blur guide] to [On] to display a guide indicating the extent of subject blur
detected while you are pressing the shutter button halfway, or while you are shooting
continuously as you turn the camera.
The guide consists of gray lines and color-coded lines that vary from red to yellow to
green, in order of decreasing blurriness.
