Face Tone

This menu allows you to control the skin tone in images in beauty shot 
mode. The higher the level you select, the brighter the skin tone.

 1.  Select [Face Tone] by pressing the 

Up/Down button.

 2.  Select a desired face tone by pressing 

the Left / Right button and then press 
the OK button. 

 3.  Press the Shutter button to take an 

image.

Face Retouch

This menu allows you to make skin appear clear and beautiful before 
recording in beauty shot mode. The higher the level selected, the 
more effective the control.

 1.  Select [Face Retouch] by pressing the 

Up/Down button.

 2.  Select a desired face retouch by 

pressing the Left / Right button and 
then press the OK button. 

 3.  Press the Shutter button to take an 

image.

The higher the resolution, the lower the number of shots 
available because high resolution images require more memory.
