Shooting Features
Using Skin Softening
When the shutter is released while using one of the shooting modes listed below, the camera
detects human faces and processes the image to soften facial skin tones (up to three faces).
• Smart portrait mode (A42)
- The skin softening level can be adjusted.
• x (scene auto selector) mode (A32)
• Portrait or Night portrait scene mode (A34)
Editing functions such as Skin softening can be applied to saved images by using Glamour
retouch (A70) even after shooting.
B Notes About Skin Softening
• It may take more time than usual to save images after shooting.
• Under some shooting conditions, the desired skin softening results may not be achieved, and skin
softening may be applied to areas of the image where there are no faces.
