periphery of the image changes. Also, since this filter expands the
center part of the image, the resolution at the center may decrease
depending on the number of recorded pixels. Check the image on the
screen when setting this filter. The AF point will be fixed to the one at
the center.

Art bold effect
Makes the photo look like an oil painting and the subject look more
three-dimensional. You can adjust the contrast and saturation. Note
that subjects such as the sky or white walls may not be rendered with a
smooth gradation and may look irregular or have significant noise.

and may look irregular or have significant noise.
