Using BEST SHOT
• Images shot using a BEST SHOT scene may not produce the results you expected
due to shooting conditions and other factors.
• You can modify the camera settings that are made after you select a BEST SHOT
scene. Note, however, that the BEST SHOT settings revert to their defaults when
you select another BEST SHOT scene or turn off the camera.
With this feature, you can shoot your own self-portrait simply by pointing the camera
at your face.
BEST SHOT has two self-portrait scenes from which to choose.
1. On the BEST SHOT scene menu, select “Self-portrait (1 person)” or
“Self-portrait (2 people)”.
2. Press the shutter button all the way down, and point
the camera at yourself.
About three seconds after you press the shutter button, the
camera will go into Auto Shutter standby and start face
detection. After the camera detects the specified number of
faces, focuses, and adjusts the exposure to the proper
level, it will beep twice and then release the shutter
automatically.
• The camera will emit a shutter sound and the front lamp will flash twice when
the shutter is released.
• To cancel Auto Shutter standby, press [SET].
IMPORTANT!
• If the camera remains in Auto Shutter standby without releasing the shutter, you
can record an image by pressing the shutter button all the way down again.
• Shooting with the self-portrait feature may produce a blurred image when shooting
in areas where lighting is dim, which results in a very slow shutter speed setting.
• The Auto Power Off (page 100) trigger time is fixed at five minutes while the
camera is in Auto Shutter standby. Sleep (page 99) is disabled while Auto Shutter
is being used.
Recording a Self-portrait (Self-portrait)
• Self-portrait (1 person): Shoots when the face of at least one person, including
you, is detected.
• Self-portrait (2 people): Shoots when the faces of at least two people, including
you, are detected.
