Using Face Detection

Using Smart Face Recognition

The camera automatically registers faces that you frequently photograph. The Smart Face Recognition feature will automatically prioritize the focus on those faces and on favorite faces. The Smart Face Recognition feature is available only when you use a memory card.

: Faces that you have registered as favorites. (To register faces as favorites, refer to page 73.)

: Faces that the camera has automatically registered.

The camera may recognize and register faces incorrectly depending on lighting conditions, drastic changes in the subject's pose or face, and whether or not the subject is wearing glasses.

The camera can automatically register up to 12 faces. If the camera recognizes a new face when 12 faces have already been registered, it will replace the lowest priority face with the new one.
