Face Detection
The camcorder automatically detects people’s faces and uses this
information to select the optimal settings for beautiful videos and pho-
tos.
POINTS TO CHECK
• Select a recording program other than [q Night Scene], [p Low Light]
or [M Fireworks].
By default, face detection is activated. If the function was turned off, per-
form the following procedure to turn it on.
To select the main subject
If there is more than one person in the picture, the camcorder will auto-
matically select one person it determines is the main subject. The main
subject is indicated by a white face detection frame and the camcorder
will optimize the settings for that person. Other faces will have gray
frames.
Touch a different face on the
touch screen to optimize the
camcorder's settings for that
person.
NOTES
• The camcorder may mistakenly detect the faces of non-human sub-
jects. In such case, turn face detection off.
• In certain cases, faces may not be detected correctly. Typical examples
include:
- Faces extremely small, large, dark or bright in relation to the overall
picture.
- Faces turned to the side, at a diagonal or partially hidden.
