What is "default" for a Canon? My M6 has "auto" and "standard" picture styles, among others. I can't remember which one was set "out of the box". In the old days, it would have been the standard one, but now, I suspect that it's auto. Or at least, it's probably auto in some settings and standard in others. But I can't remember what position the mode selector dial was in when I took the camera out of the box, so I don't know which picture style it would have set. As far as I know, on "auto" the picture style the camera uses depends on what kind of scene it thinks it's shooting. So, in your example, auto might have given the landscape style, or it might have given the portrait style.

As the length of a thread approaches 150, the probability that someone will make the obvious "it's not the camera, it's the photographer" remark approaches 1.
