Face and Smile Detection AF/AE Function
The face ( ) and smile ( ) detection functions can be set on and off
with each press of the Down/Screen / Face Detection /
Smile Detection navigation button in most capture modes. When
the subject’s face/ smile is detected, the white bracket appears to track
faces/smiles while the camera or people are moving.
When the Shutter button is pressed halfway, the green focus frames
appear on the LCD screen. Then the camera automatically adjusts the
focus point and exposure to the optimized value. Press the Shutter
button all the way to take pictures of detected faces. When a detected face smiles, the shutter is

However, when the camera fails to detect your subject’s face, a white focus bracket will be displayed
according to the selected focus mode.
