•The Face Detection may not operate depending on the recording conditions. For example, the Face Detection frame may appear when framing a 'face-like' shape, even when the subject is not a person's face. If this occurs, turn off the Face Detection feature.

•The Face Detection feature will not work when framing the side of a person's face. You must be facing them 'head-on.'
