to [Continuous AF] or [Manual Focus], etc.

When the person is wearing sunglasses.
When the front hair covers the person's eyes.
In low-light or back-lit conditions.
When the eyes are closed.

Hint
When the camera focuses on the eyes and [Smile/Face Detect.] is set to [On], a detection
frame is displayed on the face after it is displayed on the eyes. When [Smile/Face Detect.] is
set to [Off], a detection frame is displayed on the eyes for a certain time.
