Registering the priority face (Selected-face Memory)
Normally the camera automatically selects the face to focus on according to the [Face
Detection] setting, but you can also select and register a face to be given priority.
• Each time you touch a different face, that face is registered as the priority face.
• When you remove the battery from the camera or leave the power turned off for a few days, the face
registration is reset.
• If Tracking Focus is activated, Face Registration settings are reset.
• When the registered face disappears from the LCD screen, the camera returns to the setting selected
by [Face Detection]. When the registered face is shown on the LCD screen again, the camera
focuses on the registered face.
• It may not be possible to detect the registered face correctly depending on the surrounding
brightness, the subject’s hairstyle, etc.
• When the Smile Shutter function is used with the Face Detection frame registered, Smile Detection
is performed only on the registered face.
• In Easy Mode or when [Self-Timer] is set to [Self-portrait One Person] or [Self-portrait Two
People], the priority face cannot be registered.
