C Viewing Pictures That Were Taken Using Pet Detection
If you enlarge a picture by tapping O or tapping the face detected at the time of shooting twice
quickly in full-frame playback mode, the picture is enlarged so that the detected face is displayed in
the center of the monitor.
If the camera detected multiple faces when the picture was taken, you can tap M or N to display a
different face. Once you change the zoom ratio, you will be able to zoom in on an area of the picture
where there are no faces.
O Pet portrait
Use this mode for taking portraits of pets (dogs or cats). When
the camera detects the face of a dog or cat, it focuses on the
face and automatically releases the shutter (pet portrait auto
release) 3 times at the default setting.
A double border (focus area) is displayed around
the detected face, and it turns green when the
focus is acquired.
Up to five faces can be detected. When the
camera detects more than one face, the double
border is displayed around the largest face, and
single borders are displayed around the others.
If the shutter-release button is pressed halfway
when no pet faces are detected, the camera
focuses on the subject at the center of the frame.
Digital zoom is not available.
To change the Y Pet portrait auto release setting, tap the d tab (A 11).
- On (default setting): The shutter is automatically released when the focus is acquired
on the detected face.
- Off: The shutter is released using the shutter-release button. When any pets are
detected, you can tap a pet’s face to release the shutter (A 38).
To change the C Continuous setting used in this mode, tap the d tab (A 11).
- Single: The camera takes one picture at a time.
- Continuous (default setting): When the pet portrait auto release function is activated
and the focus is acquired on the detected face, the camera releases the shutter 3 times
(continuous shooting speed rate: about 1.4 frames per second when the image mode
setting is l 4608×2592). When the pet portrait auto release function is disabled, up to
18 pictures can be continuously taken at a rate of about 1.4 frames per second while the
shutter-release button is held down (when the image mode setting is l 4608×2592).
Factors such as the distance between the pet and the camera, the orientation or
brightness of the face, and the speed at which the pet is moving may prevent the camera
from detecting the faces of dogs or cats or may cause the camera to display borders
around faces other than those of dogs or cats.
Pet portrait auto release is automatically set to Off in the following situations:
- When continuous shooting is used five times in rapid succession with the pet portrait
auto release function.
- When the internal memory or memory card becomes full during shooting.
To continue using the Pet portrait auto release function, tap the d tab and set Y
Pet portrait auto release to On.
