In a digital camera in a first embodiment, components are added such that when the user operates the switch to acquire an image, the camera provides the external sounds and activity simulating the acquisition of an image, but without actually acquiring a image. The activation of the switch initiates operation of a timing unit. The actual image acquisition is acquired without user input after a preselected time determined by the timing unit. In the second embodiment, activation of a timing unit by switch causes the digital camera to acquire images periodically. The images are transferred to a processing unit where a pattern recognition program examines the acquired image for a preselected feature, such as smile on a face of a subject. When the preselected feature is identified, the digital camera stores the image providing the preselected feature. This invention can be used in the photographing of children.
