Shooting Portraits
The <2> (Portrait) mode blurs the background to make the human subject
stand out. It also makes skin tones and hair look softer.
Shooting Tips
Select 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.
Use a telephoto lens.
If you have a zoom lens, use the telephoto end to ll the frame with the
subject from the waist up. Move in closer as necessary.
Focus on the face.
Check that the AF point covering the face lights up. For close-ups of the
face, focus on the eyes.
The default setting is <i> (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.
