Recording with the Face Recognition function
[Face Recog.]
Default [Face Recog.] setting is [OFF].
When the face pictures are registered, the setting will be [ON] automatically.
■■How the Face Recognition function works
During recording
(When [AF Mode] is [ 
] (Face Detection))
••The camera recognizes a registered face and adjusts focus and exposure.
••When registered faces that have set names are recognized, the names are displayed (up to 3 people).
During playback
••The name and age are displayed (if information is registered).
••The names that have been set for the recognized faces are displayed (up to 3 people). (→161)
••Only pictures of the selected registered people are played back ([Category Selection] in [Filtering Play] or [Slide Show]).
●●When Burst is performed, recording information relating to Face Recognition is only added to the first picture.
●●If you press the shutter button halfway, then point the camera at a different subject and record, recording information for a different person may be added to the picture.
●●Face Recognition searches for faces similar to those registered, but there is no guarantee it will always recognize these faces. In some cases, the camera cannot recognize or incorrectly recognizes even registered people depending on their expression or the environment.
●●Face Recognition may take more time to select and recognize distinctive facial features than regular face detection.
●●Face recognition does not work during motion picture recording.
●●Even if Face Recognition information is registered, pictures recorded when the name is [OFF] are not categorized for Face Recognition in [Category Selection].
●●Even if Face Recognition information is changed, Face Recognition information for previously recorded pictures is not changed.
For example, if a name is changed, pictures recorded before the change are not categorized for Face Recognition in [Category Selection].
●●To change name information for pictures already recorded, perform a [REPLACE] (→181) in [Face Rec Edit].
●●Cannot be set in the following case.
