This is very useful in eliminating common problems that are encountered over underexposed faces.

When the shutter button is pressed halfway down, the camera will automatically detect the precise points of the subject, thus resulting to better focus points. To keep the face looking natural and bright, the settings of the camera exposure and the flash may be controlled. During the playback, red eyes can then be properly corrected.

The iSAPS technology enhances the accuracy and the focus speed of the camera. What more, it also aids in the white balance and the exposure of every captured image. The red-eye correction feature automatically detects red-eyes from a particular image during a playback. Once detected, it will correct the red-eye problems. However, there are certain cases wherein the red-eye cannot be automatically detected. In this case, users can manually correct it during playback mode.
