Smile/Face Detect.
Using Smile Shutter
When the Face Detection function is used, the camera detects the faces of your subjects and adjusts
[Autofocus Area], [Flash Mode], [Exposure Comp.], [White Balance] and [Red Eye Reduction] settings
automatically. When using [Smile Shutter], the camera detects smiles and releases the shutter
automatically.
When the camera detects more than one subject, the camera will judge which is the main subject and
set focus by priority. The frame for which the focus is set will turn green by pressing the shutter button
halfway down.
