Shooting in Portrait/Night Portrait Scene Mode
1
Press the A button in shooting
mode to display the shooting-
mode selection menu and choose
b (Portrait) or e (Night portrait)
(
A 36).
The camera enters portrait or night portrait
scene mode.
2
Frame the picture.
When a face looking toward the camera is recognized, a
yellow double border (focus area) will be displayed
around that face.
When the camera detects more than one face, a double
border will be displayed around the face closest to the
camera, and single borders around the others. When a
face framed by a single border is tapped, the single
border changes to a double border and the camera will
focus on that face.
If no face is recognized, the camera will focus on the subject at the center of the frame.
The smile indicator is displayed in Portrait scene mode. If the camera detects a smiling
face of the human subject framed by a double border, the smile indicator increases or
decreases. The smile indicator is not displayed when the camera selects Portrait in
Scene auto selector scene mode.
Portrait one-touch zoom ( A 45) is available.

taken when the shutter-release button is pressed the rest of the way down.
When the camera is unable to focus, the focus area blinks red. Change the composition
and press the shutter-release button halfway again.
