Tracking the face you want to shoot
z
The camera stops tracking a subject when the subject moves off of the screen. When [Face
Detection] is set to [On], and the subject to be tracked is a face, if the face disappears from
the screen while the camera is tracking, and then returns to the screen, the camera focuses on
that face again.
• If you trigger Smile Shutter while tracking a face, the face becomes the target of the smile
detection feature.
• If you set [Object Tracking] to [On], the camera can track the body when the face is not
visible on the LCD screen.
