face

Notes
The subject you touched may not be detected,
depending on the surrounding brightness or
hairstyle of the subject. In this case, touch the
subject again when you record.
If you want to track a face, set the [Face
Detection] setting to other than [Off] ([Auto] is
the default setting).
Tips

If the face you touched disappears from the
LCD screen, the subject selected in [Face
Detection] (p. 85) has priority. If the face you
touched returns to the screen, that face has
priority.
