Shooting Portraits The (Portrait) mode blurs the background to make the human subject stand out. It also makes skin tones and hair look softer. Shooting Tips zzSelect the location where the distance between the subject and the background is the farthest. The further the distance between the subject and background, the more blurred the background will look. The subject will also stand out better against an uncluttered dark background. zzUse a telephoto lens. If you have a zoom lens, use the telephoto end to fill the frame with the subject from the waist up. zzFocus on the face. As you focus, make sure the AF point on the face is lit in green before you shoot. When shooting close-ups of the face, you can set [z: Eye Detection AF] to [Enable] to shoot with the subject's eyes in focus. ooThe default setting is (Low-speed continuous shooting). If you keep holding down the shutter button, you can shoot continuously to capture changes in the subject's facial expression and pose. 77
