Tips and Notes
• When you point the camera at the subject, the camera automatically
recognizes the shooting scene mode from the list below and adjusts the
shooting settings accordingly.
• The focus area depends on the composition of the image. When the camera
detects a human face, it focuses on that face (A53).
• Depending on shooting conditions, the camera may not select the desired scene
mode. In this case, select another shooting mode (A19).
