Shooting Features
Characteristics of Each Scene
Use of a tripod is recommended in scenes with which O is indicated. Set
Vibration reduction in the setup menu (A94) to Off when using a tripod to
stabilize the camera.
b Portrait
Use this mode for portraits.
The camera detects and focuses on a face (see “Using Face
Detection” (A65) for more information).
After the skin softening feature makes the subject’s skin
appear smoother, the camera records the image (A66).
If no faces are detected, the camera focuses on the subject
at the center of the frame.
The digital zoom is not available.
c Landscape
Use this mode for vivid landscapes and cityscapes.
When the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the
focus area or focus indicator (A6) always lights in green.
d Sports
Use this mode when shooting sporting events. The camera
captures a series of still pictures that allow you to clearly see
detailed movements in a moving subject.
The camera focuses on the subject at the center area of the
frame.
To capture a series of images, hold down the shutter-
release button all the way. Up to 12 pictures are shot at a rate of about 1.4 frames per
second (fps) (when image mode is set to P 4608×3456).
The camera focuses on the subject even when the shutter-release button is not pressed
halfway. You may hear the sound of the camera focusing.
Focus, exposure, and hue are fixed at the values determined with the first shot in each
series.
The frame rate with continuous shooting may decrease depending upon the current
image mode setting, the memory card used, or shooting condition.
