AF ILLUMINATOR

An LED Illuminator is like a mini-flashlight on the front of the camera to enhance focus and exposure for macro shooting. The LED illuminator also works in conjunction with the flash to help illuminate your subject in low-light conditions.

ADVANCED SHADOW ADJUSTMENT TECHNOLOGY

Automatically compensates for shadowed areas to minimize the differences in highlight and lowlight areas resulting in more uniform expsure 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. The TruePic VI image processor further reduces noise in the shadowy areas allowing for even better backlight adjustment.

FACE DETECTION

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

AF TRACKING

AF Tracking automatically tracks unpredictable, fast-moving subjects such as kids and pets, and continuously adjusts the focus and brightness so you can capture these photogenic whirlwinds with ease.

SMART PANORAMA

Capture breathtaking panoramic views and vistas just as you remember them, all in one frame and at the touch of a button, by simply panning the camera across the scene. No computer necessary!
