• Face recognition in the Family First mode may be slower than
in the Normal mode because the camera needs time to
determine whether the faces in the image are the same as the
recorded faces. Also, compared with the Normal mode, the
Family First mode will not be able to recognize faces that are
far away and small.
• If the camera is unable to find a face when you press the
shutter button, it will focus on the center of the screen.
• Always make sure that Auto Focus (AF) is selected as the
focus mode when shooting with face recognition. Use of no
other focus mode is supported.
• When shooting with the camera held sideways (for a portrait
orientation shot), face recognition may take more time when
shooting with the camera held normally (landscape
orientation).

the following features.
