Frame a Picture
1
Ready the camera.
Hold the camera steadily in both hands, keeping your
fingers and other objects away from the lens, flash, the
projector button, AF assist-illuminator, microphone, and
speaker.
When taking pictures in portrait (“tall”) orientation, turn
the camera so that the built-in flash is above the lens.
2
Frame the picture.
When the camera recognizes a human face, that face will
be framed by a yellow double border (default setting).
Up to 12 faces can be recognized. If more than one face is
recognized, the face nearest to the camera will be framed
in the focus area by a double border, and the other faces
will be framed by a single border.
The focus area is not displayed when taking pictures of subjects other than people, or
when framing a picture in which no face is recognized. Frame the picture so that the
intended subject is at or near the center of the frame.
