One of the things the video touted was face recognition software.
Fuji has this in the F30 upgrade (can't remember model number)
so it must be in other digital cameras.

Has anybody seen, or can anyone offer, comparisons of portraits
with and without the feature enabled?


Sounds good to me. Faces are the subject of many a photo, so why not
set the focal length and exposure to get them right? (Is that what they
do?) I know how to use my manual controls, but I'm not above using auto
when it suffices.

My impression is that face recognition was more important in setting
auto focus, then exposure, but I doubt it zooms the damn lens.
