3FACE DETECTION

Intelligent Face Detection allows the camera to automatically detect human faces and set focus and exposure for a face anywhere in the frame for shots that emphasize portrait subjects. Choose for group portraits (in vertical or horizontal orientations) to prevent the camera from focusing on the background. Intelligent Face Detection also offers a red-eye removal option for removing “red-eye” effects caused by the flash.

Bicon appears in monitor when Intelligent Face Detection is on.
