The camera takes up to three
shots each time the shutter
button is pressed, softening
the background to emphasize
the main subject. The amount
of softening can be adjusted before shooting by
rotating the command dial. Use for portraits or
photos of flowers similar to those produced by
SLR cameras.

Note
Softening can not be applied to background objects
that are too close to the main subject. If a message
stating that the camera can not create the effect is
displayed when the camera focuses, try backing away
from your subject and zooming in. The camera may
also be unable to soften the background if the sub-
ject is moving; if prompted, check the results and try
again.
