So why did Ricoh spend time and money developing a new
'deep learning artificial intelligence technology' ? My original question was because the implication of their publicity material is that AUTO takes a lot of variables into account depending on the scene - maybe if you don't have a user mode set up for something you see while photographing something else it would be of use? What I'm interested in is if, for example, it recognises a face, does it go into full portrait morde with skin tone and shallow depth of field etc? If it does, and you don't have a portrait user mode, that could be very useful. That's why I want to know if people have experience of using it. I could do my own experiments, and I will (provided you promise not ti take my camera away), but a broader experience sample would be useful.
