Smile Shutter™ technology captures a smile the moment it happens. Simply press the Smile
Shutter™ button and the camera does the rest. You can also select adult and child priority and
indicate the degree of Smile Detection sensitivity. Intelligent Scene Recognition can now be
used together with Smile Shutter™ mode when the Intelligent Auto mode is on. This means that
beautiful smiles can be captured with settings optimized for the particular scene, even in difficult
conditions such as twilight and backlighting.
Soft Skin mode
Portrait subjects will love the results. Soft Skin mode recognizes skin tones and reduces the
appearance of blemishes and wrinkles without affecting the rest of the shot.
Intelligent Scene Recognition (iSCN) Mode
Intelligent Scene Recognition (iSCN) Mode automatically detects seven different types of scenes
and, within just 1/30th of a second, selects the appropriate camera settings: Backlight, Backlight
Portrait, Twilight, Twilight Portrait, Twilight using a tripod, Portrait, Landscape and macro. iSCN
has two modes: Auto and Advanced. In Auto Mode, the camera takes a single shot using the
optimal settings. In Advanced Mode, the camera takes a photo with the optimal settings and,
if in difficult lighting (low light or back light) immediately takes a second photo with another
optimized setting so you can choose which to keep.
Dynamic Range Optimizer
Dynamic Range Optimizer (DRO) Standard and Plus uses a sophisticated algorithm to help
recover shadows and highlights. The result is more natural images with clearer details that more
closely match what your naked eye sees. DRO is particularly effective when shooting backlit
portraits or any scene with a dramatic contrast between background and foreground lighting.
DRO Plus allows for even greater optimization by analyzing each region of an image and
performing additional image processing.
Self-Portrait Timer
Self-Portrait Timer helps take the guesswork out of self-portraits by utilizing Face Detection
technology to recognize when your face enters the frame. Once the camera detects your face,
it triggers a 2-second timer, and then snaps a picture.
