FACE/EYE DETECTION SETTING FACE/EYE DETECTION SETTING
Intelligent Face Detection sets focus and
exposure for human faces anywhere in
the frame, preventing the camera from
focusing on the background in group
portraits. Choose for shots that em-
phasize portrait subjects. Faces can be
detected with the camera in vertical or
horizontal orientation; if a face is detected, it will be indicated
by a green border. If there is more than one face in the frame,
the camera will select the face closest to the center; other faces
are indicated by white borders. You can also choose whether the
camera detects and focuses on eyes when Intelligent Face Detec-
tion is on. Choose from the following options:
Option Option Description Description
FACE ON/EYE OFF Intelligent Face Detection only.
FACE ON/EYE AUTO
The camera automatically chooses which eye to fo-
cus on when a face is detected.
FACE ON/RIGHT EYE PRIORITY
The camera focuses on the right eye of subjects de-
tected using Intelligent Face Detection.
FACE ON/LEFT EYE PRIORITY
The camera focuses on the left eye of subjects de-
tected using Intelligent Face Detection.
FACE OFF/EYE OFF Intelligent Face Detection and eye priority off .
O
In some modes, the camera may set exposure for the frame as a whole
rather than the portrait subject.
If the subject moves as the shutter button is pressed, the face may not
be in the area indicated by the green border when the picture is taken.
N
If the camera is unable to detect the subject’s eyes because they are
hidden by hair, glasses, or other objects, the camera will instead focus
on faces.
