Smile Shutter
When the camera detects a smile, the shutter is released automatically.
1. Press (Smile) on the control button.
2. Wait for a smile to be detected.
When a smile is detected and the smile level exceeds the point on the indicator, the camera
records images automatically.
If you press the shutter button during Smile Shutter, the camera shoots the image, and then
returns to Smile Shutter mode.
3. To stop shooting, press (Smile) again.
Tips for better capturing of smiles
Do not cover the eyes with the bangs. Do not obscure the face by hat, masks,
sunglasses, etc.
Try to orient the face in front of the camera and be as level as possible. Keep
the eyes narrowed.
Give a clear smile with an open mouth. The smile is easier to detect when
the teeth are shown.
The shutter operates when any person whose face is being detected smiles.
You can select the priority subject for face detection with [Face Detection]. When the selected
face is registered in the camera memory, Smile Detection is performed only for that face.
[Details]
If a smile is not detected, select MENU [Smile Detection Sensitivity], then set the value to
[Slight Smile].
