Nikon S60 ad

This is a cool and funny ad. (For a camera ad.)
Unfortunately the camera itself is getting panned by reviewers.

At that resolution, it took a minute for me to see the face recognition working on the faces across the courtyard in the opposite "opgang".

I was worried that it had picked out an airconditioner on the end wall, then realized it was a kid behind the curtains.

I can almost see the parody of it now with the boob recognition algorithm.

Picasa's face recognition works quite well too.

I hadn't even seen the other faces. And I am sure it has nothing to do with what's in the foreground.
But I suspect the ad works better on a magazine page.

I was just going to tell you it's S60, not D60, and you edited it already.

Oh, and trust you just to go for the one with the totty. The haunted hotel, and the intrepid explorer are also good.

"allylowl". I like it. Sounds like a Welsh town, or a war cry.

I noticed all the other faces by editing the image and heavily ingreasing the gamma.

I'd rather be ingreasing those girls.
