FACE
DETECTION
. 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.
Q
In some modes, the camera may set exposure for the frame as a whole rather than
the portrait subject.
Q
If the subject moves as the shutter button is pressed, their face may not be in the
area indicated by the green border when the picture is taken.
