Portrait Mode
This mode blurs the background to
make the human subject stand out.
* Holding down the shutter button
executes continuous shooting.
Turn the Command Dial to <>.
* The picture-taking procedure is the
same as with the Full Auto mode
«C» (page 24).
* Background blur is most effective when the subject fills the frame from the
waist up. Also, the further away the subject is from the background, the
more blurred the background will become.
+ Using a telephoto lens also increases background blur. If you have a zoom
lens, use the longest focal length. (For example, a 28-80mm zoom lens set
to 80 mm.)
* Under low-light or backlit conditions, the built-in flash will pop up and fire
automatically.
* See page 60 for notes on using the built-in flash.
