I bought H a new camera the other week, it’s a Sony T700. It’s definitely the most girly camera I’ve ever seen in my life, but I was amazed at the picture quality and some of the functions so I’ve been using it more than anything else recently

One of the functions the camera has is the ability to recognise smiles, you press the smile detection button and it analyses the person being photographed and waits until the smilometer reaches a certain level before taking the photograph. It works most of the time (you have to strain a bit sometimes) but when it’s dark it’s a bit hit and miss and for one or two people it just wouldn’t work (despite them grinning until you could see their gums and their lips were about the split).

Also, if you’re photographing someone who’s not smiling there’s a function which contorts their face so it looks like their smiling, when used in moderation this can tastefully change the tone of a picture, see below.

But we’re not interested in doing things by halves, we go straight to maximum here at Dingle Speaks!!!
