• When you point the camera at the subject, the camera automatically
recognizes the optimum scene mode from the list below and adjusts the
shooting settings accordingly.
• The focus area depends on the composition of the image. When the camera
detects a human face, it focuses on that face (E16).
• Depending on shooting conditions, the camera may not select the desired
scene mode. In this case, select another shooting mode (A20).
