Detecting and Focusing On Faces
The camcorder can detect a person’s face during autofocus mode,
automatically focus on it, and even track it if the person moves. When
there are a number of people in the picture, one person (with the white
face detection frame) will be determined to be the main subject and the
camcorder will focus on that person’s face.

4 Point the camcorder at the subject.
• If there is more than one person in the picture, the camcorder will
automatically select one person it determines is the main subject.
The camcorder will indicate the main subject with a white face
detection frame and other faces with gray frames.
• To change the main subject when there is more than one person,
press the assignable button set to [Select Face].
NOTES
• The camcorder may mistakenly detect the faces of non-human
subjects. In such case, turn face detection off.
• 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 that are turned to the side, at a diagonal or partially hidden.
• Face detection cannot be used in the following cases:
- When the shutter speed used is slower than 1/30 (1/24 if the frame
rate is set to [24P]).
- When using slow & fast motion recording mode and the shooting
frame rate is set to less than 24P.
