Face Detection

When the face detection function is activated, the camcorder will detect people's faces. When there are a
number of people in the picture, one person will be determined to be the main subject but you have the option to
select a different person as the main subject. The camcorder will keep tracking the main subject even when it
moves.
You can use face detection with one of the autofocus functions to let the camcorder focus on the main subject
automatically (Face AF). You can also combine face detection with the Dual Pixel Focus Guide function (A 75)
