Smile detection
Smile detection allows you to capture a face just as it smiles. The camera detects up to
five faces and selects one face for smile detection and auto focus. A yellow frame shows
which face is selected. When the selected face smiles, the camera automatically takes a
photo.

Adding the geographical position to your photos
Turn on geotagging to add the approximate geographical location (a geotag) to photos
when you take them. The geographical location is determined either by wireless networks
(mobile or Wi-Fi® networks) or GPS technology. When appears in the viewfinder,
geotagging is turned on but the geographical position has not been found. When
appears, geotagging is turned on and the geographical location is available, so your photo
can get geotagged. When neither of these two symbols appears, geotagging is turned off.
