Using Face Id; Personal Information; Registering Face Id Information - Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II User Manual

Using Face ID

If you register a person ahead of time, the camera will detect that person's
face, and prioritize focus, brightness, and color for that person when
shooting. In [ ] mode, the camera can detect babies and children
based on registered birthdays and optimize settings for them when
shooting.
This function is also useful when searching for a specific registered
person among a large number of images ( = 115).
It is recommended to register information in advance so that images can
be selected easily for Story Highlights ( = 136) albums.

Personal Information

● Information such as images of a face (face info) registered with
Face ID, and personal information (name, birthday) will be saved
on the camera. Additionally, when registered people are detected,
their names will be recorded in still images. When using the Face ID
function, be careful when sharing the camera or images with others,
and when posting images online where many others can view them.
● When disposing of a camera or transferring it to another person after
using Face ID, be sure to erase all information (registered faces,
names, and birthdays) from the camera ( = 49).

Registering Face ID Information

You can register information (face info, names, and birthdays) for up to 12
people to use with Face ID.
