compensation value are cancelled and these settings return to their default scene values whenever
another shooting mode is selected or the camera is turned off.
b Portrait
Use this mode for portraits in which the main subject stands
out clearly. Portrait subjects exhibit smooth, natural-looking
skin tones.
Focus will be set on people's faces if it recognizes people's
faces (front view). See “Face Priority” (A96) for more
information.
If the camera detects a smiling face of the subject, the smile
indicator increases or decreases.
If the camera detects multiple smiling faces, the smiling face
positioned at the nearest center of the screen will be
detected and come in focus.
If no faces are recognized, focus will be on the center of the
screen.
Digital zoom is not available.
