How the Face Recognition function works
During recording

and exposure
• When registered faces that have set names are recognized,
the names are displayed (up to 3 people)
During playback
• The name and age are displayed (if information is
registered)
• During recording, the names that have been set for the recognized faces are
displayed (up to 3 people)
• Only pictures of the selected registered people are played back ([Category Selection])

●
When Burst is performed, recording information relating to Face Recognition is put only
on the first picture.
●
If you press the shutter button halfway, then point the camera at a different subject and
record, recording information for a different person may be put on the picture.
●
Face Recognition does not work in the following cases:
Motion picture recording, Scene Modes [Transform], [Panorama Assist], [Night
Scenery], [Food], [Hi-Speed Burst], [Flash Burst], [Starry Sky], [Fireworks], [Aerial
Photo], [Film Grain], [Underwater]
●
Face Recognition searches for faces similar to those registered, but there is no
guarantee it will always recognize these faces.
●
Even if Face Recognition information is registered, pictures recorded when the name is
[OFF] are not categorized for Face Recognition in [Category Selection].
●
Even if Face Recognition information is changed, Face Recognition information
for previously recorded pictures is not changed.
For example, if a name is changed, pictures recorded before the change are not
categorized for Face Recognition in [Category Selection].
●
To change name information for pictures already recorded, perform a [REPLACE] (→100)
in [Face Rec Edit].
