To take a photo using Smile Shutter™

When the camera is open and Smile Shutter™ is turned on, point the camera

at your subject. The camera selects which face to focus on.

The face selected appears inside a coloured frame and the photo is taken

automatically.

If no smile is detected, press the camera key to take the photo manually.

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 on the camera screen, 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.

To turn on geotagging

receive information about it right on your screen. Or you can take a photo of a book

or scan a QR code and get background information instantly.

Info-eye™ can only recognise selected landmarks or objects.
