Using face detection

Using smart face recognition

The camera automatically registers faces that you frequently photograph (up to 10 people). This feature will automatically prioritise the focus on those faces. This feature is available only when you use a memory card.

In Shooting mode, select f ￿ ￿ . The priority of the faces will be shown by the level indicator next to the frames.

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

￿￿The camera may recognise faces and display the level indicator, even though they have not been registered.

￿￿You can view registered faces in order of priority while in Playback mode. (p. 63) Even though faces are registered successfully, they may not be classified in Playback mode.

￿￿If the camera recognises a new face when there are 10 registered faces, it will replace the face in the lowest priority with the new one.

￿￿The camera can recognise up to 3 faces in one scene.

￿￿When the camera does not recognise faces, it will still detect the faces without prioritising them.

￿￿You can manually register faces from photos you have already taken. (p. 63)
