Notes about Face Priority
•
In
Face priority
or the smile mode, if the shutter-release button is pressed halfway when no faces
are recognized, AF area mode will be set to
Auto
.
•
In the
Portrait
and
Night portrait
settings of scene mode, if the shutter-release button is
pressed halfway when no faces are recognized, focus will be set on the center of the screen.
•
The camera may be unable to detect faces in the following situations:
- When faces are partially hidden by sunglasses or other obstructions
- When faces take up too much or too little of the frame
- When the subject is not looking directly at the camera
•
The camera’s ability to detect faces depends on a variety of factors, including whether or not the
subject is facing the camera.
•
In some rare cases shooting subjects with which autofocus may not perform as expected (
A
25),
the subject may not be in focus despite the fact that the double border glows green. Should this
occur, switch to AF area mode (
manual
or
center
), refocus on another subject positioned at the
same distance from the camera as the actual portrait subject, and use focus lock (
A
95).
•
Pictures taken in Face Priority, while in full-frame playback, will be rotated (if necessary) and
displayed.
