Hints for better capturing of smiles

• The shutter operates when any person whose face is being detected smiles.
• You can select or register the selected 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.
To perform smile detection for a different face, change the selected face with z on the control
button (page 65).

• If a smile is not detected, set the [Smile Detection Sensitivity] in setting menu.

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 showing.
