Shooting Suited to Scenes (Scene Mode)

e Night portrait

Use this mode for portraits taken at sunset or at night. Flash is used to illuminate the subject while maintaining the mood of the background. Press the d button to select Hand-held or Tripod in Night portrait. Hand-held: This enables you to shoot with the minimum of camera shake and noise even when holding the camera by hand. - The Y icon is displayed on the shooting screen. - When the e icon at the top left of the monitor lights in green, press the shutter-release button all the way to shoot a series of pictures, which will be combined into a single image and saved. - Once the shutter-release button is pressed all the way, hold the camera steady without moving it until a still picture is displayed. After taking a picture, do not turn the camera off before the monitor switches to the shooting screen. - The angle of view (image area) seen in the saved image will be narrower than that seen on 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 (default setting): Select this mode when the camera is stabilized, such as with a tripod. - The Z icon is displayed on the shooting screen. - Vibration reduction (A193) is automatically set to Off regardless of the applied option in the setup menu (A185). - Press the shutter-release button all the way to shoot a single picture at slow shutter speeds. Shoot pictures with the flash raised. The digital zoom is not available. The camera automatically detects and focuses on a face (see Shooting with Face Priority (A97) for more information). - If the camera detects multiple faces, the camera focuses on the face closest to the camera. - After the Skin softening feature makes the subjects skin appear smoother (up to three people), the camera records the image (A66). - If no faces are recognized, the camera focuses on the subject at the center of the frame.
