Face Detection

When the Face Detection function is used, the camera detects the faces of your subjects and
adjusts the focus, flash, exposure, white balance and red-eye reduction settings automatically.
When the camera detects more than one subject, the camera will judge which is the main subject
and set focus by priority. The frame for which the focus is set will turn green by pressing the
shutter button halfway down.
