Advanced (Recording pictures)
When taking pictures of people outdoors during the daytime, this mode enables the texture
of their skin to appear even softer than with [PORTRAIT]. (It is effective when taking
pictures of people from the chest up.)
∫ Technique for Soft skin mode
To make this mode more effective:
1 Rotate the zoom lever as far as possible to Tele.
2 Move close to the subject to make this mode more effective.
Note
•
If a part of the background etc. is a color close to skin color, this part is also smoothed.
• This mode may not be effective when there is insufficient brightness.
• The initial setting for [AF MODE] is [š].
Subject can be recorded either slim or stretched, and at the same time, skin can be
recorded smoothly.

∫ Technique for Self portrait mode
•
Press the shutter button halfway to focus. The self-timer indicator
lights up when you are brought into focus. Making sure you hold
the camera still, press the shutter button fully to take the picture.
•
The subject is not focused when the self-timer indicator is blinking.
Make sure to press the shutter button halfway again to focus.
• The recorded picture automatically appears on the LCD monitor
for reviewing.
• If the picture is blurry due to the slow shutter speed, we
recommend using the 2 second self-timer.
Note
•
The focus range is about 30 cm (0.99 feet) to 70 cm (2.29 feet) (Wide).
• You can take a picture of yourself with audio (P66). If you do this, the self-timer indicator will
light up while recording the audio.
• The zoom magnification is automatically moved to Wide (1k).
•
The self-timer can only be set to off or 2 seconds. If it is set to 2 seconds, this setting will remain until
the camera is turned off, the scene mode is changed or [REC] mode or [PLAYBACK] mode is selected.
• The stabilizer function mode is fixed to [MODE2]. (P65)
• The initial setting for [AF MODE] is [š].
