Notes About Face Detection

• The camera’s ability to detect faces depends on a variety of factors, including whether or not the

subject is facing the camera. Additionally, the camera may be unable to detect faces in the
following situations:

- When faces are partially hidden by sunglasses or otherwise obstructed

- When faces take up too much or too little of the frame

• When the frame includes more than one person’s face, the faces detected by the camera and the

face on which the camera focuses depend upon a variety of factors, including the direction in
which the faces are looking.

• In some rare cases, such as those described in “Subjects Not Suitable for Autofocus” (A 60), the

subject may not be in focus even though the double border turns green. Should this occur, use
another mode, such as A (auto) mode, and try focus lock shooting (

A 59) by focusing on

another subject that is the same distance from the camera.
