When [Face Detection] is set to [On], Digital zoom does not function.
•
Available only for [Soft Snap], the default setting is [On].
•
Up to 8 faces of your subjects can be detected. However, only up to 2 faces of your subjects
•
can be detected when you shoot images with Soft Snap.
When the camera detects more than subjects, the camera will judge which is the main
•
subject and set focus by priority.
The frame which the focus is set will turn green by pressing the shutter button half way
•
down. Even when the frame does not turn green, if the distance of the subject which the
focus is set on and other subjects are the same, the focus is set on all subjects.
Face Detection may fail, depending on the conditions under which it is used.
