Does not use the [Face Detection] function.
On (default setting):
Automatically selects a face to be brought into focus.
Smile Shutter:
Automatically detects and shoots a smile.
Face Detection frame
When the product detects a face, the gray face detection frame appears. When the
product determines that autofocus is enabled, the face detection frame turns white. When
you press the shutter button halfway down, the frame turns green.
Tips for capturing smiles more effectively
Do not cover the eyes with front hair and keep the eyes narrowed.
Do not obscure the face by a hat, masks, sunglasses, etc.
Try to orient the face in front of the product and be as level as possible.
Give a clear smile with an open mouth. The smile is easier to be detected when the teeth
are shown.
If you press the shutter button during Smile Shutter, the product shoots the image. After
shooting, the product returns to Smile Shutter mode.
Hint
When the [Smile/Face Detect.] is set to [Smile Shutter], you can select the Smile
Detection Sensitivity from [On: Slight Smile], [On: Normal Smile] and [On: Big Smile].
Note
You cannot use [Face Detection] with the following functions:
When using zoom functions other than the optical zoom
Up to eight faces of your subjects can be detected.
The product may not detect faces at all or may accidentally detect other objects as faces
in some conditions.
If the product cannot detect a face, set the Smile Detection Sensitivity.
