Two other camera features that come with the update
are Predictive Capture (smile) and Autofocus Burst. Predictive Capture
allows automatic capture of photos if the software detects that the subject is
smiling. It produces a collection of photos from which the user can choose the
best among them. This happens even without the user hitting the shutter button.
Autofocus on its part, can be used to capture less blurry images of an object
in motion.
