Face detection
Recognizes faces (up to 15 persons) and adjusts exposure and focus accordingly.
AF frame
Yellow: When the shutter button is pressed halfway, the frame turns
green when the camera is focused.
White: Displayed when more than one face is detected. Other faces
that are the same distance away as faces within the yellow AF
frame are also focused.
●
(Face Detection) is not available in the following cases:
• With the Scene modes ([Night Scenery] [Handheld Night Shot] [Food] [Starry Sky])
• [Creative Control] mode ([Miniature Effect] [Soft Focus])
• [Panorama Shot] mode
●
If the camera misinterprets a non-human subject as a face in (Face Detection)
setting, switch to another setting.
●
If conditions prevent the face from being recognized, such as when the movement of
the subject is too rapid, the [AF Mode] setting switches to (23-area-focusing).
