Face detection:

≥In the following case, faces may not be detected in some recording conditions. jFaces are not full-faces

jFaces are tilted

jFaces are extremely bright or dark jShadows on faces

jFaces are not completely exposed (for instance wearing sunglasses)

jThe size of a face is small on the screen. jThe subject moves quickly.

jWhen there is camera shake. jWhen the digital zoom is used jWhen the unit is tilted

≥In the following cases, the function may not operate properly even if faces are detected. If this occurs, turn off this function. jNonhuman subjects are recognized as

faces.

jWhen the brightness or quality cannot be adjusted clearly since scenes are extremely dark, or the areas around the faces or the background is extremely bright.

≥There is no function to focus preferentially on a face that is detected.

≥Since the brightness of the entire image is adjusted to record faces more vividly, brightness may change suddenly or images may flicker under some recording conditions.

≥When the face detection frame disappears due to zooming, the brightness may change suddenly or the images may flicker.
