Notes
  • When [Frame Rate] and [REC Mode] are set to [50i]/[Highest Quality ] or [50p]/[50p Quality ], you cannot use the Smile Shutter function while recording movies. Furthermore, when the framerate is set to [25p], you cannot use the Smile Shutter function, either.

  • Smiles may not be detected depending on recording conditions, subject conditions, and the setting of your camcorder.
