area) is displayed around the face, and the double border
glows green when focus is acquired.
• When the camera detects multiple faces (up to five
faces), the face displayed largest in the monitor is framed
by a double border and the others by single borders.

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 of the pet’s face, etc., the camera may not be
able to detect the pet’s face, or other subjects may be framed by a border.

Viewing Images Taken Using Pet Detection
In full-frame playback mode, if you enlarge an image by rotating the zoom control to g (i), the
image is enlarged so that the detected face is displayed at the center of the monitor.
If the camera detected multiple faces when the image was taken, you can tap M or N to display a
different face. Once you change the zoom ratio, you will be able to zoom in on an area of the image
where there are no faces.
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).
• Press the d button ( A 2) and select C Continuous and then select U Single or C
Continuous on the screen that is displayed.
- U Single: The camera takes one image at a time.
- C Continuous (default setting): When focus is acquired on the detected face, the camera
automatically releases the shutter 3 times. Continuous shooting speed rate: about 1.3
frames per second. When you manually release the shutter, up to 17 images can be
continuously taken while the shutter-release button is held down. Continuous shooting
speed rate: about 1.4 frames per second (when Image mode is set to P 4608Ч3456).
