Using Face ID
If you register a person ahead of time, the camera will detect that person’s
face, and prioritize focus, brightness, and color for that person when
shooting. In [ ] mode, the camera can detect babies and children
based on registered birthdays and optimize settings for them when
shooting.
This function is also useful when searching for a specific registered
person among a large number of images (= 91).
Registering people ahead of time is also a good way to let you extract
them easily for a Story Highlights album (= 108).
Personal Information
● Information such as images of a face (face info) registered with
Face ID, and personal information (name, birthday) will be saved
on the camera. Additionally, when registered people are detected,
their names will be recorded in still images. When using the Face ID
function, be careful when sharing the camera or images with others,
and when posting images online where many others can view them.
● When disposing of a camera or transferring it to another person after
using Face ID, be sure to erase all information (registered faces,
names, and birthdays) from the camera (= 48).
Image Display during Playback
Each set of images shot continuously is managed as a single group,
and only the first image in that group will be displayed. To indicate that
the image is part of a group, [ ] is displayed in the upper left of the
screen.
● If you erase a grouped image (= 98), all images in the group
are also erased. Be careful when erasing images.
● Grouped images can be played back individually (= 92) and
ungrouped (= 92).
● Protecting (= 96) a grouped image will protect all images in
the group.
● Grouped images can be viewed individually when played back
using Image Search (= 91) or Smart Shuffle (= 95). In this
case, images are temporarily ungrouped.
● The following actions are not available for grouped images:
editing Face ID information (= 93), magnifying (= 94),
tagging as favorites (= 101), editing (= 102), printing
(= 153), setting up individual image printing (= 157), or
adding to a photobook (= 158). To do these things, either
view grouped images individually (= 92) or cancel grouping
(= 92) first.
