Face Detection Because the face makes the photo, Sony has created Face Detection technology that recognizes up to 8 faces in a photo and automatically controls focus, exposure, color and flash to bring out the best in everyone. Unlike some competitive systems, Sony Face Detection makes skin tones look more natural and reduces red-eye with pre-strobe flash. Smile Shutter Mode In Smile Shutter Mode, the DSC-T70 helps you capture more smiles by shooting automatically when your subject laughs, smiles, even grins. You select the person to watch and the expression to catch -- your Cyber-shot cameras Face Detection system and intelligent Smile Shutter algorithm do the rest! HD Slide Show with Music Its the high-definition viewing experience that makes photos more entertaining to watch, accompanied by your choice of visual effects and any of four preset musical selections stored in memory or your favorite music downloaded from PC to your camera for use as background music4. 9-Point Auto Focus Because an off-center subject can make your shot more interesting, the DSC-T70 can measure auto-focus precision at 9 points on your screen -- giving you greater creative freedom to compose your image. D-Range Optimization Powered by the exclusive Sony Bionz high-speed processing engine, D-Range Optimization preserves image data in bright highlights and reveals more detail in shadows or backlit areas -- for great results even in difficult lighting conditions. In-Camera Retouching The DSC-T70 lets you add 8 creative effects to photos after you shoot -including new radial blur effect, retro color tint and trimming function along with soft edge filter to soften backgrounds, cross filter to place starry dazzles at highlight points, partial color filter to mute surrounding colors, and fish-eye filter to create interesting fish-eye lens effects. In-Camera Red-Eye Reduction Irritating glowing eyes can ruin even the most creative photos -- so the DSCT70 provides in-camera correction at the touch of a button to reduce lingering red-eye effect that other systems might miss.
