Natural Flash
Flashes on conventional point-and-shoot
cameras simply can’t capture colors the way your
eye actually sees them. To correct this problem,
Sony’s Natural Flash takes an initial shot without
a flash. This reference shot is then used to correct
the color in a second shot — taken with the flash —
to produce a more lifelike final image.
Soft Skin
Minimize the appearance of blemishes, fine
wrinkles and dull complexions in your portrait
shots with Sony’s Soft Skin mode. It automatically
detects up to eight faces in your photo, then
digitally corrects skin imperfections while
enhancing the mouths and eyes of your subjects.
Backgrounds and other objects in your photos
remain untouched.
Smile Shutter
®
Everyone knows how tricky it can be to capture
shots of people at the perfect moment when
they’re smiling. That’s what makes our Smile
Shutter
® technology such a hit. The system can
track multiple smiles plus offers an Adult/Child
Priority setting to zero in on the smiles of little ones.
It’s perfect for capturing true, natural smiles that
often last for only a moment.

Face Detection
When Face Detection is engaged on a Sony ®
digital camera, it can recognize a human face
and automatically optimize your shots to take
better pictures of people. Face Detection allows
you to capture sharper images with less blur.
Self-Portrait Timer
Hand-held self portraits have always been difficult —
you can’t see the LCD to confirm your face is in the
frame. Self-portrait timer confirms proper framing
with Face Detection — selectable for one or
two faces. Once activated, Self-portrait timer
automatically releases the shutter 2 seconds after
a face is detected in the scene — now it’s easy to
get into the picture!
