automatically detects up to eight

The camera may not be able to recognize faces in the following
cases:
• When the face is side-view, tilted, or moving
• When the camera is tilted or upside down (the shutter release
button is facing down)
• When the face is partially hidden or at the edge of the frame
• When the face is not clearly visible because of dark
surroundings
• When the subject is too far away (Make sure that the face
appearing in the picture display is vertically longer than one
block marked by the grid guide. GP.40).
Discreet Mode
Use where lights and sounds emitted by the camera may be
unwelcome. The flash (GP.31), AF auxiliary light (GP.99), and
speaker (GP.100) turn off and flash, AF auxiliary light, and sound
settings can not be adjusted.
Night. Port.
Use when taking portrait pictures against a nightscape. The flash
fires automatically. The shutter speed slows down, so be careful of
camera shake.
Night
Landscape
Multi-shot
Use for night scenes. Blur caused by camera shake is reduced even
in handheld shots. Four shots are taken in succession and combined
to create a single image, increasing the time needed to record
photographs in comparison to other modes. The J icon is
always displayed when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.
