Taking Pictures of Smiling Faces (Smart Portrait Mode)

In the default setting, the camera detects smiling faces using face priority and

releases the shutter automatically (smile timer function). The skin softening

function makes a human subject’s skin appear smoother.

Rotate the mode dial to F (smart portrait).

• The camera enters smart portrait mode.

Frame the picture.

• Point the camera at the subject.

• When the camera detects a face, the focus area

containing the face will be displayed with a yellow

double border, and when focus is locked the double

border will turn green for a moment.

• Up to three faces can be detected. When more than

one face is detected, the face closest to the center of the frame is framed by a double

border and the others by single borders.

• When more than one face is detected, press the k button to choose on which face to

focus. Press J K on the multi selector to choose the face on which to focus and press

the k button.

The shutter is automatically released.

• If the camera detects that the face framed by the double border is smiling, the Smile

timer function (A57) automatically releases the shutter.

When the flash does not fire, the shutter is released five times each time a picture is

taken, and the picture in which the most people have smiles is saved.

When the camera detects a face, the self-timer lamp (A4) blinks. Immediately after

the shutter is released, the self-timer lamp flickers. Each time the shutter is released, the

camera repeats automatic shooting by face priority and smile detection.

• The shutter can also be released by pressing the shutter-release button. If no face is

detected, the camera focuses on the subject in center of frame.

• When the shutter is released, the camera makes the subject’s skin appear smoother,

then records the image (Skin softening (A57)).
