Just select a shooting mode suiting the target subject, and you can 
easily obtain the best results.

This mode blurs the background to make the 
human subject stand out.

 

Holding down the shutter button executes 
continuous shooting.

 

To increase the background blur, use a telephoto 
lens and fill the frame with the subject from the 
waist up. Or have the subject stand farther away 
from the background.
