Automatic Shooting of a Smiling Face (Smile Timer)
The camera detects a smiling face to shoot the face automatically.
1
Tap self-timer control to display self-
timer menu, and tap
H.
When d is tapped, the menu will close and the
monitor display will return to shooting mode
without changing the self-timer setting.
2
Frame a picture.
When the camera detects a face looking toward
the camera, the focus area containing the face
will be displayed with a yellow double border.
The camera focuses on the face framed by the
double border. The double border will glow
green and focus will be locked.
When the camera detects more than one face, the face closest to the camera is framed
by a double border and the others by single borders. When a face framed by a single
border is tapped, the camera focuses on the position indicated by tapping the touch
panel. Up to three faces can be detected.
Digital zoom is not available.
3
Press the shutter-release button all
the way down.
The camera begins searching for smiling faces
five seconds after the shutter-release button is
pressed. If the camera detects a smiling face,
framed by a border, the smile indicator
increases and the shutter is released
automatically. If more than one face is
recognized, the shutter is released when the
camera detects that all of the recognized faces are smiling.
If a face is tapped in step 2, when the camera detects a smiling face framed by the
double border, the smile indicator increases and the shutter is released automatically.
When the shutter-release button is pressed, the number of seconds remaining until the
camera begins searching for smiling faces is displayed in the monitor. The self-timer
lamp will blink. The lamp stops blinking one second before the camera begins searching
for smiling faces.
When the shutter is released, automatic shooting, with which the camera detects a
smiling face and releases the shutter automatically, will be performed repeatedly.
