NOTES
• The camcorder may mistakenly detect the faces of non-human subjects. In such case, turn face
detection & tracking off.
• When face detection is activated, the slowest shutter speed used by the camcorder is 1/25.
• In certain cases, faces may not be detected correctly. Typical examples include:
- Faces extremely small, large, dark or bright in relation to the overall picture.
- Faces turned to the side, at a diagonal or partially hidden.
• Face detection & tracking cannot be used in the following cases.
- When the shutter speed used is slower than 1/25.
- When the digital zoom is activated at more than 80x zoom.
• Touching somewhere with a color or pattern unique to the subject will make it easier to track.
However, if there is another subject in the vicinity that shares similar characteristics to the selected
subject, the camcorder may start tracking the incorrect subject. Touch the screen again to select
the desired subject.
• In certain cases, the camcorder may not be able to track the subject. Typical examples include:
- Subjects extremely small or large in relation to the overall picture.
- Subjects too similar to the background.
- Subjects lacking sufficient contrast.
- Fast moving subjects.
- When shooting indoors with insufficient lighting.
