- The Make-up Art mode blurring process may not be able to produce the desired results under the conditions described below.
• When the lens is at full wide-angle.
In this case, try changing the zoom factor so the focal distance is 27 mm (35mm film format), which is at least three steps from full wide-angle.• When the camera or subject moves during shooting. • When face detection is not possible for some reason.
The message "Blur processing failed." will appear if the camera determines that the Make-up Art mode background blurring process cannot be performed for some reason. Note, however, that the image will be saved, even if background blurring is not possible.
