Shooting ( )

Self Portrait

When taking pictures of yourself, the area of your face is automatically detected so that you can take self pictures more easily and quickly.

1. For self-filming, set the camera lens towards the face of the object.

It automatically detects the face of the object, and emits a guiding sound.

2. Start filming by pressing the shutter button.

When locating the face in the center of the screen, it repeatedly emits a faster sound unlike the sounds that are emitted when the face is not in the center.

Smile Shot

The camera automatically takes a picture by

detecting the face of the subject although you don’t press the shutter button. If you

press the Shutter button, the picture is taken in the normal way. When taking a picture of smile shot, showing teethes or keeping the smiley face of your subject helps detecting the smile face of the subject.

Blink Detection

If the eyes of the subject are closed when the shutter button is pressed, the camera takes 2 continuous shots and then the images are saved. The camera takes only one picture if the eyes of the subject are open when the Shutter button is pressed.

Detecting the smiling face or the blinking eyes may not be available if any of the following situations occurs:

-If the subject is wearing sunglasses.

-When the subject is not facing directly to the camera.

-If the environmental light is too bright or too dark to detect the face of the subject.

-When the camera is far from the subject. (Orange colored focusing mark)

-If there is refl ection of the light or the back light that are too bright.
