Option Description
Face
Detection

Your camera automatically detects human

faces (up to ten human faces).

The closest face appears in a white focus
frame and the rest of the faces appear in grey
focus frames.
The closer you are to the subject, the
quicker your camera will detect faces.
If your camera fails to detect a face, it
will focus in the center.
