O Pet portrait
Use this mode for taking portraits of pets (dogs or cats). When
the camera detects the face of a dog or cat, it focuses on the
face and automatically releases the shutter (pet portrait auto
release) three times at the default setting.
• A double border (focus area) is displayed around the
detected face, and it turns green when the focus is
acquired.
Up to five faces can be detected. When the camera detects
more than one face, the double border is displayed around
the largest face, and single borders are displayed around
the others.
• If the shutter-release button is pressed all the way down
when no pet faces are detected, the camera focuses on the
subject at the center of the frame.
• To change the C Continuous setting used in this mode, tap the bottom tab to display
the setting controls.
- Single: The camera captures one image at a time.
- Continuous (default setting): When the pet portrait auto release function is activated
and the focus is acquired on the detected face, the camera releases the shutter three
times. When the pet portrait auto release function is disabled, about two images can be
continuously captured at a rate of up to about 1.2 frames per second while the shutter-
release button is held down (when the image mode setting is P 4608×3456).
• To change the Y Pet portrait auto release setting, tap the bottom tab to display the
setting controls.
- On (default setting): The shutter is automatically released when the focus is acquired on
the detected face.
- Off: The shutter is released using the shutter-release button or touch shutter (A 47).
• Digital zoom is not available.
• Flash is disabled.
• AF-assist illuminator (A 160) does not light up. Shutter sound (A 161) is disabled.
• Factors such as the distance between the pet and the camera, the orientation or
brightness of the face, and the speed at which the pet is moving may prevent the camera
from detecting the faces of dogs or cats or may cause it to detect faces other than those of
dogs or cats.
