Notes About Face Priority Tracking
• Only one subject can be tracked. If the camera detects multiple faces at the same time, the face
closest to the center of the frame is tracked.
• When the frame includes more than one face, the face detected by the camera and registered as
the subject to be tracked depends upon a variety of factors, including the direction in which the
faces are looking.
• Depending on shooting conditions, such as whether or not the subject is facing the camera, the
face may not be detected properly. Additionally, the camera may be unable to detect faces in the
following situations:
- When faces are partially hidden by sunglasses or otherwise obstructed
- When faces take up too much or too little of the frame
• When the camera is unable to track the registered subject, press the k button to track again, or
set Face priority tracking to Off, frame the picture so that the subject is inside the border in the
center of the frame, and press the k button to register the subject again.
