•The [AF MODE] is automatically set to [Ø] when you switch the recording mode to Motion Picture P Mode while the [AF MODE] is set to [ ].

•ISO sensitivity will be fixed to [AUTO].

•[ REC AREA] (P127) is fixed to [ ].

•[REMAINING DISP.] (P127) is fixed to [REMAINING TIME].

•As the aperture is controlled within a certain range to get an adequate exposure in this mode, for some cases depending on the brightness of the subject, an actual aperture setting would not be changed in response to the movement of selection cursor, so that no change on the degree of peripheral defocus could be recognized. (For example, in dark places including in a room, the aperture would stay at the maximum aperture value, even for both ends of the selection cursor, so that no change on the degree of peripheral defocus could be recognized.)

•Refer to “Recording Motion Picture” on P98 for other settings, operations and information for recording motion pictures.

[REC] mode:

Taking a picture with Face Recognition function

Face Recognition is a function which finds a face resembling a registered face and prioritizes focus and exposure automatically. Even if the person is located towards the back or on the end of a line in a group photo, the camera can still take a clear picture.

To use the Face Recognition function, set the [FACE RECOG.] in the [REC] Mode menu to [ON], and register the face images of the people to recognize. (initially set to [OFF])

•The Face Recognition function includes the following. In Recording Mode

–Display of corresponding name when camera detects a registered face¢ (if name has been set for the registered face)

–The camera will remember a face that has been photograhed many times and display the registration screen automatically (if

[AUTO REGISTRATION] is set to [ON])

In Playback Mode

–Display of name and age (if information has been registered)

–Selective playback of pictures chosen from pictures registered with Face Recognition ([CATEGORY PLAY] (P132))

¢Names of up to 3 people are displayed. Precedence for the names displayed when taking pictures is determined according to the order of registration.

Note

•[FACE RECOG.] only works when [AF MODE] is set to [š].

•During the burst mode, [FACE RECOG.] picture information can be attached to only the first picture.

•After pressing the shutter halfway down, a different person’s picture information may be added when the camera is turned to a different subject to photograph.

•You cannot use [FACE RECOG.] in the following scene modes.

– [PERIPHERAL DEFOCUS]/[FOOD]/[NIGHT SCENERY]/[ILLUMINATIONS]

•When the focus mode is set to [MF], automatic registration is not available.

•The data registered with [FACE RECOG.] will be reset when the [REC] menu settings are reset with [RESET].

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

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