Detecting faces Tips
•
When your camera detects a face, it tracks the detected face
automatically.

Face Detection may not be effective when:
-
the subject is far from the camera (The focus frame will appear
orange for Smile Shot and Blink Detection.)
-
it is too bright or too dark
-
the subject is not facing the camera
-
the subject is wearing sunglasses or a mask
-
the subject’s facial expression changes drastically
-
the subject is backlit or the lighting conditions are unstable
