Shooting
If you register a person ahead of time, the camera will prioritize that person
as the main subject, and optimize focus, brightness, and color for that
person when shooting.
When you point the camera toward a
subject, the names of up to 3 registered
people will be displayed when they are
detected.
Shoot.
Displayed names will be recorded in still
images. Even if people are detected, but
their names are not displayed, the names
(up to 5 people) will be recorded in the
image.
• People other than those registered may be mistakenly detected as
the registered person if they share similar facial features.
• Registered people may not be correctly detected if the captured image or
scene differs drastically from the registered face information.
• If a registered face is not detected, or not easily detected, overwrite registered
information with new face info. Registering face info right before shooting will
allow for easier detection of registered faces.
• If a person is mistakenly detected as another person and you continue
shooting, you can edit or erase the name recorded in the image during
playback (= 120).
• Because faces of babies and children change quickly as they grow, you should
update their face info regularly (= 47).
• Names will still be recorded in images even if you clear the [Shooting Info]
check box in [Custom Display] (= 107) on the [4] tab so that the names are
not displayed.
• If you don't want names to be recorded in still images, choose
[Face ID Settings] on the [4] tab, choose [Face ID], and then choose [Off].
• You can check names recorded in images in the playback screen (simple
information display) (= 114).
• In [ ] mode, names are not displayed on the shooting screen, but they will be
recorded in still images.
• Names recorded in continuous shooting
recorded in the same position as for the first shot, even if subjects move.
