Using the Face Detection Function

3 TakingPictures

With the Optio RZ10, 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 display screen, 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 32 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). It can display up to a total of 31 frames, including a main frame and white frame(s).

• Face Detection AF and AE may not work if the subject is wearing sunglasses, has part of their face covered or is not looking toward the camera.

•If the camera cannot detect the subject’s face, the camera focuses using the setting currently selected in [Focusing Area].

•When the Smile Capture function is activated, the shutter may not be released automatically because the Smile Capture function may not work in some situations, such as when the detected face is too small.
