When multiple faces are detected, a

white frame is displayed around the main

subject’s face and up to two gray frames

around other faces, as the camera zooms

to keep these subjects on the screen.

Shoot.

Auto zooming continues even after you

shoot, and the frames are still displayed.

To cancel auto zooming, press the [ ]

button again. [

] is displayed.

Faces may not be detected at some zoom factors, or if the
subject’s head is tilted or facing the camera indirectly.

Auto zooming is deactivated in the following situations.

-

When you change the shooting mode

-

When you press the [

] button, movie button, or [ ]

button

-

When you press the [ ] button

When a detected subject moves toward the edge of the screen,
the camera zooms out to keep the subject on the screen.

The zoom factor cannot be changed after you press the shutter
button all the way down in self-timer mode (

=

36).

The camera prioritizes zooming to keep subjects on the screen.
For this reason, it may not be possible to maintain a constant
face display size, depending on subject movement and shooting
conditions.

When no face is detected, the camera zooms to a certain level
and stops zooming until a face is detected.

Moving the zoom lever will display the zoom bar (which indicates
the zoom position). The zoom bar is color-coded to indicate the
zoom range.

-

White range: optical zoom range where the image will not
appear grainy.

-

Yellow range: digital zoom range where the image is not
noticeably grainy (ZoomPlus).

-

Blue range: digital zoom range where the image will appear
grainy.

Because the blue range will not be available at some recording
pixel settings (

=

39), the maximum zoom factor can be

achieved by following step 1.

To deactivate digital zoom, choose MENU (

=

25) ► [

] tab

► [Digital Zoom] ► [Off].
