Notes About AF Areas

When the camera detects a face, a yellow double border

(focus area) is displayed around the face, and the double
border turns green when the camera has focused.

When the camera detects more than one dog or cat

face (up to five can be detected), the face displayed
largest in the monitor is framed by a double border
and the others by single borders.

When no pet or human faces are detected, the camera

focuses on the subject at the center of the frame.

Notes About Pet Portrait Scene Mode

Digital zoom cannot be used.
Depending on the distance of the pet from the camera, the speed of the pet’s movement, the

direction the pet is facing, the ambient brightness around its face, etc., the pet face may not be
detected and other subjects may be displayed with a border.

O Pet portrait

When you point the camera at a dog or cat, the camera detects the pet’s face and focuses on it.

By default, the shutter is automatically released when focus is acquired (pet portrait auto release).

To change the continuous shooting setting, tap F and tap V Continuous.

- U Single: The camera takes one picture at a time.
- V Continuous (default setting): When focus is acquired on the detected face, the camera

automatically releases the shutter 3 times. When you manually release the shutter, up to 19
images can be continuously taken while the shutter-release button is held down. The frame
rate with continuous shooting is about 2 fps (when Image mode is set to l 4608Ч2592).
