Face detection

Face Detection detects and recognizes

face-like shapes and adjusts focus,

color, and exposure automatically.

Also, it adjusts recording conditions

so that they are optimized for the face

detected.

Press the Control (Up/Down)

button to select “Face Detection,” and then press

the OK button.

- Detects a face and frames it in white. The detected face image

is optimised automatically.

The Face Detection indicator (

) and Face Detection frame (

)

are not recorded.

When Face Detection frames a face, it also adjusts the focus and

exposure to optimal values for that face automatically.

Face Detection may not operate depending on the recording

conditions. For example, the Face Detection frame may appear on 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 on the side of a person's

face or if the illumination is too low. You must be facing subjects

"head-on" and have enough illumination.
