Using Skin Softening
When the shutter is released while using one of the shooting modes listed below, the camera
detects human faces and processes the image to soften facial skin tones (up to three faces).
• Smart portrait mode (A37)
• e Portrait, h Night portrait, or d Backlighting in G (easy auto) mode (A 29)
• Portrait or Night portrait in scene mode (A30)
Skin softening can also be applied to saved images (A61, E17).
B Notes About Skin Softening
• It may take more time than usual to save images after shooting.
• Under some shooting conditions, the desired skin softening results may not be achieved, and skin
softening may be applied to areas of the image where there are no faces.
