Focusing on Subjects

BNotes About the Face Detection Function

The camera may be unable to detect faces in the following situations:

-When faces are partially hidden by sunglasses or other obstructions

-When faces take up too much or too little of the frame

When the frame includes more than one face, the faces detected by the camera and the face on which the camera focuses depend on a variety of factors, including the direction in which the faces are looking.

When shooting a subject that is not suitable for autofocus (A25), the camera may not be able to focus properly on the subject despite the fact that the double border glows green. Should this occur, refocus on another subject positioned at the same distance from the camera as the actual portrait subject (A60).

CViewing Images That Were Taken Using Face Detection

When playing back images that include a face detected during shooting, the images are automatically rotated depending on the orientation of the face detected (except images captured in a series).
