Taking Pictures with the Portrait Mode
Portrait mode allows you to achieve the depth
of focus effect easily when you take portrait
photos. The subject looks sharp and
outstanding against an unfocused
background. It will be best place the subject
much closer and allow for proper distance
between subject and background.
Please note that this mode is suitable for
outdoor situations under sunlight.
When you view the subject under differing
lighting situations, you may need to open the
flash. Flash mode will be [Forced ON] in the
default position and you can also select
[Auto/Red-eye reduction]. ([AUTO] can not be
selected in this mode.)
