If the registration screen is not displayed easily, recording in the same environment and

with the same expression will make it display more easily.

If a face is not recognised despite being registered, re-registering the person from

[REC] menu’s [FACE RECOG.] at that location will make it easier for the camera to
recognise the person.

If the registration screen is displayed for a person already registered, making additional

registration of the person in that status will make it easier for the camera to recognise
the person.

If a picture recorded with a flash is registered, it may be difficult for the camera to

recognise the person.

When [AUTO REGISTRATION] is set to [ON], the [FACE RECOG.] setting is also

switched to [ON ] automatically.
