Smart Portrait Mode (Shooting Smiling Faces)
When human smiles are detected, the camera automatically releases the shutter
without you having to press the shutter-release button (smile timer), helping you
capture the natural smiles of your subjects. You can also use the skin softening
option to smooth the skin tones in human faces.
1
Frame a picture and wait for the subject to
smile without pressing the shutter-release
button.
• When the camera detects a human face, a yellow
double border (focus area) is displayed around that
face. When the camera has focused on that face, the
double border will turn green for a moment and focus
is locked.
• Up to three faces can be detected. When the camera detects more than one face, a
double border is displayed around the face closest to the center of the frame, and
single borders are displayed around the other faces.
• If the camera detects that the face framed by the double border is smiling, Smile
timer ( A 49) is activated and the shutter is automatically released.
• Each time the shutter is released, the camera again initiates face detection and smile
detection operations for continuous automatic shooting.
