Taking Pictures in the One-Touch Portrait Mode

For portrait shots, press m when the camera is in the auto mode, scene
mode and movie mode. The following features are automatically activated:
• Portrait: Portrait subjects stand out clearly while background details are
softened, lending a sense of depth to the composition.
• Face-priority AF: Face-priority AF is enabled to allow the camera to auto-
matically recognize human faces.
• Auto red-eye reduction: The flash mode is automatically set to A (auto
with red-eye reduction: c 26).
Press m again to return to the shooting mode indicated with the mode
selector.

Press m.
• The K guide is displayed.

Frame a picture using the K guide.
• When the camera detects a face, the guide is dis-
played with a double yellow border.
• When the camera detects more than one face, the
closest face is framed by a double border and the
rest by a single border. The camera focuses on the
face framed by the double border. If the camera
loses its ability to detect a face (for example,
because the subject has looked away from the camera), borders are no longer
displayed and monitor display returns to that shown in step 1.

halfway.

ble border turns green.
