The S2980’s Face Detection functions make it easy to shoot perfect portraits and group shots without red eyes and blinking. You don’t even have to wait for your subject to say “cheese” with the Smile & Shoot mode.
Face Detection optimizes people pictures by detecting faces and adjusting focus and exposure to ensure bright, clear results.
Red-eye removal automatically detects and corrects flash reflection for a perfect end result.
Face Detection can simultaneously recognize up to 10 faces in a photo. Share your group portraits using the Zoom function in playback, checking each detected face. Each expression can be cropped and saved in clear high resolution.
The camera will warn you when people in the frame are blinking, giving you the option to retake the photo or enlarge the face so you can save or delete the image before you take the next shot.

The Smile & Shoot mode of Scene Position automatically releases the shutter when your subject smiles so you won't miss the adorable moment when it happens.
