Taking a Picture with Face Recognition Function
Face Recognition is a function which finds a face resembling a registered face and
prioritises focus and exposure automatically. Even if the person is located towards the
back or on the end of a line in a group photo, the camera can still take a clear picture.
The following functions will also work with the Face Recognition
function.
In Recording Mode
Display of corresponding name when camera detects a registered
face
¢
(if name has been set for the registered face)
The camera will remember the face that has been photographed
many times and display the registration screen automatically
(if [AUTO REGISTRATION] is set to [ON])
In Playback
Mode
Display of name and age (if information has been registered)
Selective playback of pictures chosen from pictures registered with Face Recognition
([CATEGORY PLAY] (P150))
¢ Names of up to 3 people are displayed. Precedence for the names displayed when taking
pictures is determined according to the order of registration.
Note
[FACE RECOG.] only works when the AF Mode is set to [š].
During the Burst Mode, [FACE RECOG.] picture information can be attached to only the first
picture.
You cannot use [FACE RECOG.] in the following scene modes.
[PERIPHERAL DEFOCUS]/[FOOD]/[NIGHT SCENERY]/[ILLUMINATIONS]
Auto face registration is disabled when the [FOCUS MODE] is set to manual [MF].
Similarity in facial features can result in one person being recognised as another.
Face Recognition may take more time to select and recognise distinctive facial features than
regular Face Detection.
This function is fixed to [OFF] while motion pictures are taken.
Even when face recognition information has been registered, pictures taken with [NAME] set to
[OFF] will not be categorized by face recognition in [CATEGORY PLAY].
Even when Face Recognition information is changed (P120), Face Recognition
information for the pictures already taken will not be changed.
For instance, if the name is changed, pictures recorded before the change will not be
categorized by face recognition in [CATEGORY PLAY].
To change the name information of the pictures taken, perform the [REPLACE] in
[FACE REC EDIT] (P163).
[FACE RECOG.] is initially set to [OFF] on the camera.
[FACE RECOG.] will turn [ON] automatically when the face image is registered.
