Subjects not suitable for Intelligent Face Detection
Intelligent Face Detection automatically focuses on a face(s)
turned towards the camera. However, difficulties will occur with
the Intelligent Face Detection mode in the following situations:
• The face is obscured by glasses, sunglasses, a hat, or hair.
• A person turned sideways, or who has their head tilted.
• The subject is too far away to recognize a face.
Intelligent Face Detection will not work in cases where the
subject is standing on his/her head, is not a person (pet or
other animal), or if the camera is not held correctly.
For such subjects use AF/AE lock (➝p.34).
