The new models, the EXILIM Zoom EX-Z450 and EXILIM Zoom EX-Z90 both are equipped with a function that can detect people and automatically determine the focus and exposure area.
"When the camera is pointed at a desired shot, the Intelligent AF function automatically detects the photo subject even if it is not a human face, and determines the focus and exposure area accordingly," the company said in a statement.
The EXILIM Zoom EX-Z450 will come with a 12.1-megapixel sensor and feature a wide-angle 28mm 4x optical zoom lens.
The EXILIM Zoom EX-Z90 will also offer 12.1-megapixels however come with a 3x optical zoom lens instead. It will sport a 3-inch screen.
Both models will come with a series of scene modes including landscape and Makeup mode that automatically softens people's faces to remove blemishes.
The camera will also come with the company's Dynamic Photo mode first announced at CES at the begging of the year. The feature allows people to superimpose themselves on to another image.
Elsewhere the camera also features an HD Movie function. Just press the dedicated Movie button to take beautiful movies at 1280 x 720 pixels.
The EX-Z450 will have an MSRP of $199.99 and will be offered in champagne. The EX-Z90 will have an MSRP of $149.99 and will be available in pink and black when the both launch in the US in October.
