Memo

  • This function may not work properly depending on the shooting conditions (distance, angle, brightness, etc.) and the subject (direction of face, smile level, etc.). It is also difficult to detect a smile in backlight.
  • After a smile is detected and captured, it takes time before the next recording may be performed.
  • “SMILE SHOT” does not work in the following cases:
    - when menu is being displayed
    - when remaining recording time or battery power is being displayed
    - when “FACE SUB-WINDOW” is set
    - when “ANIMATION EFFECT” is set

Caution

  • When “TOUCH PRIORITY AE/AF” is set to “AREA SELECT” or “COLOR TRACKING”, “SMILE SHOT” does not work.
  • If appropriate results cannot be obtained, record with “SMILE SHOT” set to “OFF”.
