INTELLIGENT AUTO - STILL IMAGE ONLY

Automatically identifies the scene you’re shooting -- up to 30 different scene modes including Portrait, Landscape, Night + Portrait, Macro or Sports -- and adjusts the settings for ideal results. (Number of scene modes varies by model.)

SCENE MODES

With built in scene modes, you can make a selection based on your shooting environment and let the camera adjust all the settings for optimal results. Choose from a varienty of scenes like Portrait, Landscape, Night, Indoor or Candle.

SHADOW ADJUSTMENT TECHNOLOGY

Automatically compensates for shadowed areas to minimize the differences in highlight and lowlight areas resulting in more uniform exposure across the image. When used together with iAuto or Face Detection, the subject's face is shot with optimal exposure settings so that the face can be recorded clearly even under strong back light conditions.

FACE DETECTION

Face Detection automatically focuses on your subjects' faces and optimizes exposure for sharp, brilliant portrait pictures.
