•
Capture photos of one person at a time when registering faces.
•
Capture 5 photos of the subject’s face for best results: one each
from the front, left, right, above, and below.
•
When capturing photos from the left, right, above, and below,
instruct the subject not to turn his or her face more than
30 degrees.
•
You can register a face even if you capture only one photo of the
subject's face.
•
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.
