High Performance Shooting Functions

Introducing a high-performance Tracking Auto Focus and Panorama Shooting Mode in the FinePix S1500.

New Tracking Auto Focus
Tracking Auto Focus function tracks the subject automatically for as long as the shutter is half pressed and the subject is kept inside the frame.
^{* Subjects other than people can also be automatically tracked.}

Panorama Shooting Mode
The new Panorama Shooting Mode* makes it easy to create impressive panoramic photos. This mode captures and combines max 3 consecutive shots, that are saved to the memory card as a single panoramic picture.

^{* Use a tripod or monopod for best results. Only the panoramic picture is saved; individual photos are not. Exposure and white balance are set with the first picture and flash is suppressed. Number of recorded pixels are limited to 3 megapixels.}

New SR AUTO & Face Detection

Equipped with the newly evolved SR Auto (Scene Recognition Auto) and Face Detection, scenes and faces can be captured and optimized even more with the detection functions.

Scene Recognition Auto Knows What's Best
Framed scenes are automatically detected and selected into 6 appropriate camera settings: Portrait, Landscape, Night, Macro, Night Portrait, Backlit Portrait.

Portrait

Landscape
Scenic shots such as mountains and buildings are automatically recognized. Colors of the sky, forests, flower fields are captured in vivid colors and depth.


Night
For low-light and nighttime scenarios, shutter speed and sensitivity are automatically adjusted, producing blur-free pictures with minimal noise.


Macro
Macro mode sets the focusing position of the details of small flowers or tiny subjects accurately.


Night Portrait
When photographing people at night or in low light, SR Auto optimizes flash range, shutter speed, and exposure of the portraits, while capturing smooth and noiseless background.


Backlit Portrait
Optimizes brightness of the faces that usually end up in shadow and underexposure caused by the light behind.


Face Detection
Face Detection instantly identifies the faces in the frame, and automatically optimizes focus and exposure up to 6 faces at a time.


Red-Eye Removal
Red-Eye Removal automatically detects faces and corrects flash reflected red-eye for a perfect end result.


Zoom Up

Trimming

A Blurless Image with Clarity

High Sensitivity + CCD Shift Image Stabilization
