When the camera detects a smiling face, you can take an image automatically without
pressing the shutter-release button (smile timer). You can use the skin softening option to
smooth the skin tones of human faces.

smile.
If the camera detects that the face framed by the double border is smiling, the shutter is
automatically released. See “Smile timer” (A69) for more information.
After the camera releases the shutter, it will continue to detect faces and smiles, and will
release the shutter again if it detects a smiling face.

shooting.
