Smile Timer takes the shot when your subject smiles, and Red-Eye Fix corrects false eye colour resulting from flash photography. Blink Proof takes two shots and keeps the one in which the subject’s eyes are more open, and even warns you if it saved a picture in which your subject’s eyes may have been closed.

Full HD (1080p) movie recording capability ensures you’ll receive exceptional quality video complete with stereo sound.
