Using Smile Catch:
Smile Catch automatically captures smiling moments.
1. Tap
and select
from the scene mode icons.
2. The camera is tracking the face of your subject (each subject is tracked by an auto focus
frame; maximum 8 subjects can be tracked).
3. Press the shutter down to activate smile tracking, and release the shutter immediately. The
camera is now tracking the smile of your subject (the auto focus frame turns into yellow
when a smile is detected).
4. Once a smile is detected, the camera instantly takes a picture.
5. The camera continues to detect smiles and takes more pictures (Step 4 is repeated). To
stop the smile tracking at anytime, press the shutter.
Flash mode
The flash provides an additional light source (usually used in a low-light environment). You
can capture an image using one of the following flash modes.
• In order to detect smiles easily and obtain better image quality, it is recommended to
have your subject facing toward the lens in the Smile Catch mode.
• The camera will only stop smile tracking when the shutter is pressed again.
• Face tracking is always on in the Smile Catch mode.
• It is recommended to turn off the flash in the Smile Catch mode, so the camera can
save time in recharging and continue to catch more smiles.
