Cams from Casio and Samsung smooth blemishes

Left one's face in the jar today? Casio's latest addition to its Exilim digicam lineup, the EX-Z300, includes a "Make-Up" feature that wipes facial blemishes when it takes photographs. From Pocket Lint:

"We believe we can differentiate our range in the compact market by offering unique features like this", a spokesman for the company told Pocket-lint.

However Casio appears to be late to the game; Samsung has already launched a compact camera with a similar technology called Picture Perfect that works in a similar way and air-brushes images.

The EX-Z300 is a 10 megapixel model with a 3-inch LCD display. Offered in black, gold and silver, it's complemented by a selection of other new Exilims with lower specifications. Each is an incremental upgrade on a current model, as far as I can tell.

Why not just edit all our visual centers so we can't see them, or anything else that's not absolutely perfect, in the first place?
