Portrait Assist
(portrait assist) mode is used to frame portraits in
which the main subject stands out clearly while back-
ground details are softened, lending the composition
a sense of depth (the degree of softening depends on
the amount of light available). A framing assist menu
helps frame off-center subjects and compose tall or
wide shots and two-person portraits.
