Picture Stabilization automatically adjusts shutter speed and sensitivity (up to ISO1600) to prevent blur. Used in conjunction with Dual IS Mode, Picture Stabilization minimizes blur from camera shake or subject movement, even in low-light situations.
High Sensitivity

* * At ISO6400/3200, resolution is limited to a maximum 5 megapixels. At full resolution (10 megapixels), sensitivity is limited to a maximum ISO1600.
Intelligent Flash
Intelligent Flash calculates subject position, camera distance and brightness of the scene, and automatically adjusts sensitivity and flash output to capture optimum foreground and background detail.

Faces Make The Picture
Face Detection
Face Detection instantly identifies faces in the scene and automatically adjusts focus and exposure to ensure beautiful people pictures.
