Registering Face Pictures - Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS5 Operating Instructions Manual

Up to 6 people's face pictures can be registered along with such information as name and

You can facilitate Face Recognition by the way you register faces: for example, register
multiple face pictures of the same person (up to 3 pictures in one registration).

Recording tips when registering face pictures
• Make sure the subject's eyes are open and mouth closed; have the subject face the
camera directly, and make sure the outline of the face, the eyes and eyebrows are
not hidden by hair.
• Make sure there are no heavy shadows on the face. (During registration, the flash is
not used).
■
If the camera seems to have difficulty recognizing faces when recording
• Register additional pictures of the same person's face, indoors and outdoors or with
different expressions or angles.
• Register additional pictures at the place you are recording.
