A Point and Shoot
When this camera is used for the first time, the shooting mode is set to A Point and shoot.
When you frame a picture, the camera automatically determines the scene and selects the
optimal settings, allowing you to take pictures with ease.
A Point and shoot is the default shooting mode for this camera.
• The area of the frame that the camera focuses on varies depending on the composition of
the picture.
• When the camera detects a person’s face, it focuses on that face (A 60). The skin
softening feature makes the skin tones in people’s faces appear smoother ( A 41).
• The flash may fire when shooting in low light.
• When shooting in low light, the use of a tripod is recommended.
• The camera does not detect the scene when the digital zoom is being used.

Notes About Motion Detection
In A Point and shoot and Shoot close-ups ( A 43), when the camera detects subject movement
or camera shake, ISO sensitivity and shutter speed are increased to reduce blurring.
