Taking front-on pictures of people (Face Detection)
Recognises faces (up to 15 people) and adjusts exposure and focus accordingly.
AF area
Yellow: When the shutter button is pressed halfway, the frame turns
green when the camera is focused.
White: Displayed when more than one face is detected.
Other faces that are the same distance away as faces within
the yellow AF area are also focused.
●
Cannot set to [ ] (Face Detection) in the following cases:
•Scene Modes ([Night Scenery], [Handheld Night Shot], [Food], [Starry Sky],
[High Speed Video])
•[Creative Control] Mode ([Miniature Effect], [Soft Focus])
•[Panorama Shot] Mode
●
If the camera misinterprets a non-human subject as a face in [ ] (Face Detection)
setting, switch to another setting.
●
If conditions prevent the face from being recognised, such as when the movement of
the subject is too rapid, the [AF Mode] setting switches to [ ] (23-area-focusing).
