Features

b Portrait
Use this mode for taking portraits in which the main subject
stands out clearly. Portrait subjects exhibit smooth, natural-
looking skin tones.
• The camera automatically detects and focuses on a face
looking toward the camera (see "Shooting with Face Priority"
(A123) for more information).
• If the camera detects multiple faces, the camera focuses on the face closest to the camera.
• If no face is recognized, the camera will focus on the subject in the center of the frame.
• The Did someone blink? screen may be displayed when the Blink warning option
(A149) in the setup menu is set to On (default setting). Press the k button or the
shutter-release button to return to the shooting screen. See "Operating the Did someone
blink? Screen" (A150) for more information.
• Digital zoom is not available.

pressed halfway, the focus area or focus indicator (A8)
always lights green; however, focus may not be set for nearby
subjects, while the camera focuses at infinity.
