Switching the Face Detection Function

The S1 comes with a Face Detection function that spots the faces in your
shot and automatically adjusts the focus and exposure for the faces. It
will automatically release the shutter when people are smiling, or if
anyone blinked, it will tell you that so you can take the shot again until it
is perfect. The default setting is [On] for [Face Detection] and O (On) for
[Blink Detection].
