z Selecting the priority face
Normally the camera automatically selects the face to focus on according to the [Face
Detection] setting, but you can also select a face to be given priority.
1 Press z on the control button during Face Detection. The leftmost face is selected as the
priority face, and the frame changes from
to an orange frame ( ).
2 Each time you press z, the priority face moves one face to the right. Press z repeatedly
until the orange frame (
) is on the face you want to select.
3 To cancel the face selection (Off), move the orange frame to the rightmost face, then
press z again.
• It may not be possible to detect the selected face correctly depending on the surrounding brightness,
the subject’s hairstyle, etc. In this case, select the face again under the conditions where the image
will be shot.
• When the Smile Shutter function is used with the Face Detection frame selected, Smile Detection is
performed only on the selected face.
• You cannot select the priority face in Easy Shooting mode, Manual Exposure Shooting mode or
when the self-timer is set to [Self-portrait One Person] or [Self-portrait Two People].
