Shooting Features
When this camera is used for the first time, the shooting mode is set to A
Point and shoot. The camera automatically selects the optimum scene when
you frame a picture, making it even easier to take pictures using settings that
suit the scene.
A Point and shoot is the default shooting mode for this camera.
• When the camera detects the main subject, it focuses on that subject (target
finding AF).
• The flash may fire when shooting in low light.
• When shooting in low light, the use of a tripod is recommended.
• The camera does not detect the scene when the digital zoom is being used.
Using Target Finding AF
The camera focuses in the manner described below when you press the
shutter-release button halfway.
• The camera detects the main subject and
focuses on it. When the subject is in focus,
the focus area is displayed in green. If a
human face is detected, the camera
automatically sets focus priority on it.
• If no main subject is detected, the camera
focuses on the area in the center of the frame.
B Notes About Target Finding AF
• Depending on shooting conditions, the subject that the camera determines to be
the main subject may vary.
• The camera may not detect the main subject appropriately in the following situations:
- When the subject is very dark or bright
- When the main subject lacks clearly defined colors
- When the shot is framed so that the main subject is at the edge of the monitor
- When the main subject is composed of a repeating pattern
