Point the camera at your subject.
Faces detected by the camera are indicated by white
frames. The face chosen for focus is indicated by
brackets at the corners of the frame. If eye-priority AF is
enabled, a white frame will appear over one or the other
of the selected subject’s eyes.
If multiple faces are detected, the face used for focus
can be selected via the control to which [I Face
Selection] (P. 122) has been assigned using [Button
Function] (P. 116). Pressing this control selects the
face nearest the AF target. To choose a different face,
hold the control and rotate the front or rear dial. Release
the control when the desired subject is selected.

are indicated by white frames. Exposure will be set
according to the value metered for the center of the
face.

Press the shutter button the rest of the way down to shoot.
Depending on the subject and the art lter setting, the camera may not be able to correctly
detect the face.
We recommend selecting [Face Priority Off] when photographing non-portrait subjects
using [C-AF] or [C-AFb] in still photography mode.
When set to [p] (Digital ESP metering) (P. 77), metering is performed with priority
given to faces.
If the zoom frame is displayed, the camera will focus on the subject in the zoom frame.
Even when faces or eyes are detected, you can opt to focus on a target chosen using AF-
target selection rather than on the face or eye selected by the camera. g G Custom
Menu J > [K AEL/AFL] > [Face Priority AF] (P. 201)
[Face & Eye Priority On], [Face & L. Eye Priority On], and [Face & R. Eye Priority On] are
not available in movie mode.
Face/eye priority is unavailable if [N Spot Metering] (P. 193) is selected during C
(spot) metering (P. 77) in single-target AF-target mode (P. 69).

Using [Button Function] (P. 116), you can assign [I Face Priority] (P. 122) to a camera
control that you can then press to disable or enable face detection. You can also change
[I Face Priority] settings by holding the button and rotating the front or rear dial.
