e Night portrait
Use this mode for portraits taken at sunset or at night. The flash
fires to light the portrait subject while preserving background
lighting to achieve a natural balance between the main subject
and background ambience.
• The camera detects and focuses on a human face. See “Face
Detection” (A 48) for more information.
• If more than one face is detected, focus will be on the face nearest to the camera.
• The camera softens skin tones (in up to three faces) by applying the skin softening
function before recording pictures (A 67).
• If no faces are detected, the camera focuses on the subject at the center of the screen.
• Digital zoom is not available.
