Panasonic DMC-GH1K Face Recognition, AF Tracking Function, Compensating the Exposure

Basic

Face Recognition

Face of the person that is taken often can be registered along with information such as name and birthday.

When a picture is taken with [FACE RECOG.] turned [ON], it will search for the face similar to the registered face, setting the focus and exposure preferentially.

It is also possible, during face recognition, to make the camera remember people’s faces, to detect faces that have been taken

more often than others, and to display the face recognition registration screen of that face. (P110)

Note

•[FACE RECOG.] will find a face similar to the registered face, and does not guarantee secure recognition of a person.

•Faces with similar distinctive features such as those of parents and children or siblings may not be correctly recognized.

•Face Recognition may take more time to select and recognize distinctive facial features than regular face detection.
