Notes About Skin Softening
• More time than usual may be required to save an image when shooting with skin softening
function.
• In some shooting conditions, facial skin tones may not be softened or parts other than face may
be modified though the camera detects a face. If the desired results are not produced, set
Skin
softening to Off and shoot again.
• The skin softening level cannot be adjusted when Portrait or Night portrait is selected in the
scene mode (including
x
Scene auto selector scene mode).
