Shooting Features
• When you point the camera at a dog or cat, the camera detects the pet’s face and focuses on it. By
default, the shutter is automatically released when focus is acquired (pet portrait auto release).
• From the screen displayed after O Pet portrait is selected, select Single or Continuous.
- Single: Whenever the detected face is in focus, the camera captures one image.
- Continuous: Whenever the detected face is in focus, the camera captures three images
continuously.
B Pet Portrait Auto Release
• Press the multi selector J (n) to change the Pet portrait auto release settings.
- Y: The camera detects a dog or cat face and automatically releases the shutter when the
detected face is in focus.
- OFF: The camera does not release the shutter automatically, even if a dog or cat face is detected.
Press the shutter-release button. The camera also detects human faces when OFF is selected.
• Pet portrait auto release is set to OFF after five bursts have been taken.
• Shooting is also possible by pressing the shutter-release button, regardless of the Pet portrait
auto release setting. When Continuous is selected, you can take images continuously while
holding down the shutter-release button all the way.
B Focus Area
• When the camera detects a face, the face is displayed inside a
yellow border. When the camera acquires focus on a face
displayed inside a double border (focus area), the double border
turns green. If no faces are detected, the camera focuses on the
subject in the center of the frame.
• In some shooting conditions, the pet face may not be detected
and other subjects may be displayed inside a border.
