Smile Shutter
When the camera detects a smile, the shutter is released automatically.

shoots the image, then returns to Smile Shutter mode.

• You cannot use the digital zoom function.
• When 
 (Landscape) or

Hints for better capturing of smiles
• The shutter operates when any person whose face is being detected smiles.
• If a smile is not detected, set the [Smile Detection Sensitivity] in setting menu.
1
Do not cover the eyes with the bangs.
Do not obscure the face by hat, masks, sunglasses, etc.
2
Try to orient the face in front of the camera and be as 
level as possible. Keep the eyes narrowed.
3
Give a clear smile with an open mouth. The smile is 
easier to detect when the teeth are showing.
