Ricoh WG-20 Operating Manual page 74

• Face Detection AF and AE may not work if the subject is wearing
sunglasses, has part of their face covered or is not looking toward
the camera.
• If the camera cannot detect the subject's face, the camera focuses
using the setting currently selected in [Focusing Area].
• However, the Smile Capture function may not work and an image may
not be captured, even when turned on, depending on the condition
of the recognized faces, such as the faces are too small. If this
happens, press the shutter release button to take a picture.
• In e (Pet) mode, the Face Detection mode is switched to pet
detection (only one pet).
