Taking Pictures
When the camera detects a person’s face in the
image, the Face Detection function displays a
yellow face detection frame around the face on the
display screen, sets the focus (Face Detection AF)
and compensates the exposure (Face Detection
AE).
If the subject in the face detection frame moves,
the frame also moves and changes its size as it
tracks the face.
The Face Detection function can recognize up
to 32 people’s faces. If it recognizes multiple
faces, the camera displays a yellow frame over
the main face and white frames over the other
faces. Up to a total of 31 frames, including both
the main and white frames can be displayed on
the screen.
In shooting modes other than R (Program), b (Shutter Priority),
(Handheld Night Snap), C (Movie), (Digital Microscope), (Interval
Shot), (Interval Movie), (High Speed Movie), c (Time-Lapse Movie),
(1cm-Macro Movie), c (Digital SR), and A (Night Scene),
Saturation, Contrast, Sharpness, White Balance, etc. are automatically set
to the optimal settings for the selected mode.
Some functions may not be available or may not function fully depending
on the selected shooting mode. For details, refer to “Functions Available for
Each Shooting Mode” (p.210).
You can turn off the shooting mode guide to be displayed on the Capture
Mode Palette (p.183).
The shutter speed tends to be slower when taking pictures of dark scenes.
To prevent camera shake, set [Shake Reduction] to [Sensor Shift] or [Dual]
(p.97), or put the camera on a tripod and use the self-timer (p.77) or a
remote control unit (p.80).
