3.7.14 Setting P/Av/Tv/M (PASM; for C1060 only)
Pressing the Av/Tv/M button toggles between the current scene mode (P), Aperture
priority (Av or A), Shutter priority (Tv or S), and Manual (M) when determining the
exposure value. For detailed explanations of Av, Tv, and M, see the next section.
3.7.15 Setting Av/Tv/M (for C850 program mode only)
Select the program mode, and then press the Av/Tv/M button to toggle between
Aperture priority, Shutter priority, and Manual when determining the exposure value.
• Aperture priority: You can choose an aperture value, while the shutter speed is
automatically determined by the lighting condition of the subject. Aperture priority is
often used when shooting static subjects or emphasizing the depth of field. In general,
use a smaller aperture if a greater depth of field is needed.
• Shutter priority: You can choose a shutter speed, while the aperture value is
automatically determined by the lighting condition of the subject. Shutter priority is
often used when shooting moving subjects. In general, use a shorter shutter speed to
catch a fast-moving object.
• Manual: You can set both the shutter speed and the aperture value.
3.7.16 Using Smile Catch
Smile Catch automatically captures the moment of a smile of your subject.
1. In the capture mode, press and select .
2. The camera is tracking the face of your subject (a white frame shows).
3. Press the shutter to activate smile tracking, and then release the shutter immediately. The
camera now is tracking the smile of your subject (a green frame shows).
4. Once a smile is detected, the camera instantly takes a picture.
5. The camera continues to detect smiles and takes more pictures (Step 4 is repeated). To
stop the smile tracking at anytime, press the shutter.
• The camera will also automatically stop smile tracking if your subject leaves your
composition area.
• Face tracking (one face only) is always on in the Smile Catch mode.
