Skin softening
Set skin softening. When the shutter is released, the camera detects up to three faces
and processes the image to make the faces appear smoother, then records the
image.
The effect of this feature can be set to High, Normal (default setting), and Low.
When Off is selected, skin softening is turned off.
• When skin softening is enabled, the icon for the current setting is displayed in the
monitor during shooting (A8). When Off is selected, an icon for the current
setting is not displayed. Additionally, the effects of the current skin softening
setting cannot be previewed in the monitor while shooting. To confirm, view the
pictures after shooting.
Smile timer
• On (default setting): Among the detected faces, if a smile is detected on the face
that is framed by a double border, the camera automatically releases the shutter.
When the flash does not fire, the shutter is released five times each time a picture
is taken, and the picture in which the most people have smiles is saved.
• Off: The camera does not release the shutter automatically using smile timer; the
shutter is only released when the shutter-release button is pressed.
• When smile timer is enabled, the current setting is displayed during shooting
(A8). When Off is selected, an icon for the current setting is not displayed.
