Face Detection
L_ Notes on Face Detection Function
• The ca mera's ability to detect faces depends on a variety of factors, including whether or not the
subject is facing the camera. 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 frame includes more than one face, the faces detected by the camera and the face on
which the camera focuses depend upon a variety of factors, including the direction in which the
faces are looking.
• In some rare cases, the subject may not be in focus despite the fact that the double border glows
green (_ 31), Should this occur, switch to I_1 (auto) mode and set AF area mode to Manual or
Center, Try refocusing on another subject positioned at the same distance from the camera as the
actual portrait subject (_ 68).
Viewing Pictures That Were Taken Using Face Detection
• When pictures in which a face was detected during shooting are played back, the pictures will be
automatically rotated for playback display according to the orientation of the face detected
except pictures taken using Continuous, BSS, or Multi-shot 16 (_ 51, _'_ 39),
• In full frame playback mode, the picture will be enlarged with the face detected during shooting
(_ 33) at the center of the monitor when the zoom control is rotated to i (% except pictu res
that were taken using Continuous, BSS, and Multi-shot 16 (_ S 1, _ 39).
