Tracking Focus continuously tracks a user-designated subject and is now more effective
at tracking people. If the subject turns away from the camera, face-detection tracking
automatically switches to subject tracking and continues tracking.
Face Detection technology
The camera can automatically detect up to eight individual faces and adjust focus, exposure,
white balance and flash to help deliver crisp, properly lit images of family and friends. Can
prioritize children or adults.
Smile Shutter™ technology
Captures a smile the moment it happens. Simply select the Smile Shutter™ mode and the
camera takes the picture automatically. You can prioritize children or adults and adjust the smile
sensitivity.
D-Range Optimizer (DRO)
Improves results with backlit subjects and recovers details hidden in shadows. Settings include
Auto, Level with a choice of five operating levels and Off.
Creative Styles

For cost-effective, convenient storage and sharing of your images, the camera accepts
Memory Stick PRO Duo™/Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo™ and SD/SDHC media (Class 4 or higher
recommended), (Memory card is required, all are sold separately).
Anti-dust sensor
Anti-Dust Technology helps keep the CMOS sensor clean, resulting in consistently clear
pictures. First a static-free coating on the sensor's low-pass filter helps repel dust. Then vibration
automatically dislodges dust from the sensor.
