Advanced (Recording pictures)

Even when face recognition information has been registered, pictures taken with [NAME] set to [OFF] will not be categorized by face recognition in [CATEGORY PLAY].

Even when face recognition information is changed (P108), face recognition information for the pictures already taken will not be changed.

For instance, if the name is changed, pictures recorded before the change will not be categorized by face recognition in [CATEGORY PLAY].

To change the name information of the pictures taken, perform the [REPLACE] in [FACE REC EDIT] (P145).

You can register information such as names and birthdays for face images of up to 6 people. Registration can be facilitated by taking multiple face images of each person. (up to 3 pictures/registration)

Point of recording when registering the face images

Face front with eyes open and mouth closed, making sure the outline of the face, the eyes, or the eyebrows are not covered with the hair when registering.

Make sure there is no extreme shading on the face when registering. (Flash will not flash during registration.)
