Frame the subject and take the picture.

When a face looking toward the camera is recognized,
the camera will focus on the face surrounded by a double
border by default.

When taking pictures of subjects other than people, or framing a subject with which no
face is recognized, the camera automatically selects the focus area (one of nine)
containing the subject closest to the camera.

See AF area mode (

A 86) and “Shooting with Face-Priority” (A 87) for more

information about face priority.

Notes on Slow Shutter Speed

At shutter speeds slower than 1/4 s, noise reduction is automatically performed, except when

Continuous, BSS, or Multi-shot 16 is selected for Continuous, increasing the time required to
save pictures.

When shooting poorly-lit subjects with Continuous, BSS, or Multi-shot 16 selected, slower

shutter speeds may not be available.
