Using the Face Detection Function

3 Taking

With the Optio S1, the Face Detection function is available with all shooting modes.

When the camera detects a person’s face in the image, the Face Detection function displays a yellow face detection frame around the face on the screen display, sets the focus (Face Detection AF) and compensates the exposure (Face Detection AE).

If the subject in the face detection frame moves, the frame also moves and changes its own size as it tracks the face.

The Face Detection function can detect up to 16 people’s faces. If it detects multiple faces, the camera displays a yellow frame over the main face and white frame(s) over the other face(s).

The default setting is [On]. You can switch to the Smile Capture function that automatically releases the shutter when the subject smiles. Refer to “Switching the Face Detection Function” (p.100) for details.
