More on Shooting Shooting Suited to Scenes (Scene Mode) d Sports Use this mode for dynamic action shots that freeze the action in a single shot and record motion in a series of pictures. • The camera focuses on the subject at the center of the frame. The area focused can be changed by the touch shutter (A 45) or touch AF/AE (A 50). The camera continuously adjusts the focus until the shutter-release button is pressed halfway to lock the focus. • While the shutter-release button is held down, up to three pictures are taken at a rate of about 0.7 frames per second (fps) when image mode is set to R 4320×3240. • Focus, exposure, and white balance are fixed at the values determined with the first picture in each series. • The maximum frame rate with continuous shooting may vary depending upon the current image mode setting, the memory card used, or shooting condition. • Continuous shooting is disabled and only one picture can be taken at a time when the shutter is released using the Touch shutter function (A 45). • Flash is disabled. • AF-assist illuminator (A 156) does not light up. e Night portrait O Use this mode for portraits taken at sunset or at night. The flash fires to light the portrait subject while preserving background lighting to achieve a natural balance between the main subject and background ambience. • When the camera detects a human face, that face will be framed by a yellow double border (focus area). See "Face Detection" (A 41) for more information. • If more than one face is detected, the face nearest to the camera will be framed by a double border (focus area) and the other faces by a single border. Tap the face framed by a single border to change the focus area to that face (A 45, 50). • The camera softens skin tones (in up to three faces) by applying the skin softening function before recording pictures (A 75). • If no faces are detected when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the camera focuses on the subject at the center of the frame. • Digital zoom is not available. • The flash mode setting is fixed at fill flash with slow sync with red-eye reduction. • Use the scene effect adjustment slider (A 60) to adjust picture brightness. Use of a tripod is recommended in scene modes with which O is indicated. 64
