Using Face Detection
In the following settings, the camera uses face
detection to automatically focus on human faces.
• A (auto) mode (A31)
• Scene auto selector, Portrait, Night portrait,
or Smart portrait scene mode (A33)
• Short movie show mode (A103)
• When AF area mode (A140) is set to Face
priority
If the camera detects more than one face, a double border is displayed around the
face that the camera focuses on, and single borders are displayed around the other
faces.
If the shutter-release button is pressed halfway when no faces are detected:
• In A (auto) mode, short movie show mode, or when AF area mode is set to Face
priority, the camera selects the focus area containing the subject closest to the
camera.
• When Scene auto selector is selected, the focus area changes depending on the
shooting conditions that the camera recognizes.
• In Portrait, Night portrait, or Smart portrait, the camera focuses on the area in
the center of the frame.
B Notes About Face Detection
• The camera’s ability to detect faces depends on a variety of factors, including the direction
in which the faces are looking.
• The camera cannot 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
