c Landscape
• The focus area or focus indicator ( A9) always glows green when the shutter-release button is
pressed halfway.
d Sports
• The camera focuses on the area in the center of the frame.
• The camera focuses even when the shutter-release button is not pressed halfway. You may hear
the sound of the camera focusing.
• Press and hold the shutter-release button all the way to capture up to 6 images continuously at
a rate of about 2 fps (when image mode is set to P).
• Focus, exposure, and hue are fixed at the values determined with the first image in each series.
• The frame rate for continuous shooting may vary depending upon the current image mode
setting, the memory card used, or shooting condition.
e Night portrait
• When the camera detects a human face, it focuses on that face ( A73).
• If no faces are detected, the camera focuses on the subject in the center of the frame.
• From the screen displayed after e Night portrait is selected, select Hand-held or Tripod.
• Hand-held (default setting):
- When the e icon at the top left of the monitor lights in green, press the shutter-release
button all the way to capture a series of images which will be combined into a single image
and saved.
- Once the shutter-release button is pressed all the way, hold the camera still until a still image
is displayed. After taking an image, do not turn the camera off before the monitor switches to
the shooting screen.
- The angle of view (i.e., the area visible in the frame) seen in the saved image will be narrower
than that seen in the monitor at the time of shooting.
- If the subject moves while the camera is shooting continuously, the image may be distorted,
overlapped, or blurred.
• Tripod: Select this option when using a tripod or other means to stabilize the camera during
shooting.
- Vibration reduction is disabled even when Vibration reduction (
A104) in the setup menu
is set to On.
- One image is captured at a slow shutter speed when the shutter-release button is pressed all
the way.
• The camera softens skin tones of human faces by applying the skin softening function ( A55).
• Digital zoom cannot be used.
