Shooting Smiling Faces (Smart Portrait Mode)
At the default settings, the camera uses face detection to detect human faces, and
then automatically releases the shutter when a smile is detected (smile timer). The
skin softening option can be used to smooth skin tones of human faces.
1 Press the A button in shooting
mode, press the multi selector H
or I to select F, and press the k
button.
The camera enters smart portrait mode.
2 Frame a picture.
Point the camera at the subject.
When the camera detects a human face, a yellow double
border (focus area) is displayed around that face. When
focus is acquired on that face, the double border will turn
green for a moment and focus is locked.
Up to three faces can be detected. When the camera
detects more than one face, the double border is displayed around the face closest to
the center of the frame, and single borders around the others.
3 The shutter is automatically released.
If the camera detects that the face framed by the double border is smiling, Smile timer
(A 68) is activated and the shutter is automatically released.
Each time the shutter is released, the camera again initiates face detection and smile
detection operations for continuous automatic shooting.
4 Shooting ends.
To stop automatic shooting of smiling faces, either turn the camera off, set Smile timer
to Off, or press the A button and select another shooting mode.
