Using Face ID
70
If you register a person ahead of time, the camera will prioritize that person
as the main subject, and optimize focus, brightness, and color for that person
when shooting.
X
When you point the camera toward a subject,
the names of up to 3 registered people will be
displayed when they are detected.
z
Shoot.
X
Displayed names will be recorded in still
images. Even if people are detected, but their
names are not displayed, the names (up to 5
people) will be recorded in the image.
Shooting
• People other than those registered may be mistakenly detected as
the registered person if they share similar facial features.
• Registered people may not be correctly detected if the captured image or scene
differs drastically from the registered face information.
• If a registered face is not detected, or not easily detected, overwrite registered
information with new face info. Registering face info right before shooting will
allow for easier detection of registered faces.
• If a person is mistakenly detected as another person and you continue shooting,
you can edit or erase the name recorded in the image during playback (p. 138).
• Because faces of babies and children change quickly as they grow, you should
update their face info regularly (p. 72).
• When information display is set to off (p. 48), names will not display, but will be
recorded in the image.
• If you don’t want names to be recorded in still images, choose [Face ID Settings]
on the
4
tab, choose [Face ID], and then choose [Off].
• You can check names recorded in images in the playback screen (simple
information display) (p. 130).
