To select the main subject

If there is more than one person in the picture, the camcorder will auto- matically select one person it determines is the main subject. The main subject is indicated by a white face detection frame and the camcorder will optimize the settings for that person. Other faces will have gray frames.

Select ( ) a different face to optimize the camcorder’s settings for that person.

Main subject

NOTES

The camcorder may mistakenly detect the faces of non-human sub- jects. In such case, turn face detection off.

In certain cases, faces may not be detected correctly. Typical examples include:

-Faces extremely small, large, dark or bright in relation to the overall picture.

-Faces turned to the side, at a diagonal or partially hidden.

Face detection cannot be used when the shutter speed used is slower than 1/25 or when the digital zoom is activated at more than 80x zoom (dark blue area on the zoom bar).

When face detection is activated, the slowest shutter speed used by the camcorder is 1/25.

White Balance

The white balance function helps you to accurately reproduce colors under different lighting conditions so that white objects will always look truly white in your recordings.

POINTS TO CHECK
