When taking pictures of people outdoors during the daytime, this mode enables the texture
of their skin to appear even softer than with [PORTRAIT]. (It is effective when taking
pictures of people from the chest up.)
Technique for Soft Skin Mode
To make this mode more effective:
1 Rotate the zoom ring as far as possible to Tele. (when a lens with a zoom function is
used)
2 Move close to the subject to make this mode more effective.
Note
If a part of the background etc. is a colour close to skin colour, this part is also smoothed.
This mode may not be effective when there is insufficient brightness.
