Pictures Taken in Face Priority

When zooming in (playback zoom) on a picture taken

using the face-priority function (A 102) by rotating the zoom control to g (i), the picture will be enlarged

with the face detected with shooting at the center of the monitor.

If more than one face was detected, the picture will be enlarged with the face on which focus was acquired at the center of the monitor. Press the

rotary multi selector H, I, J, or K to display other faces that were detected.

When the zoom control is rotated to g (i) or f (h) to adjust the zoom ratio, the center of the picture (normal playback zoom display), rather than the face, is

displayed at the center of the monitor.
