Memo
The camera is able to detect up to 16 faces. Smile levels will be displayed for up to 3 of the largest faces displayed on the screen.
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 is being displayed
- when any functions in “SPECIAL RECORDING” is set
Caution
If “TOUCH PRIORITY AE/AF” is not set to “FACE TRACKING”, “SMILE SHOT” will not work.
If appropriate results cannot be obtained, record with “SMILE SHOT” set to “OFF”.
