How the Face Recognition function works
During recording
(When [AF Mode] is set to (Face Detection))
• The camera recognizes a registered face and adjusts
focus and exposure based on this face.
• When faces are recognized for which names have also
been registered, the names are displayed
(max. 3 persons).
During playback
• The name and age are displayed (if that information is registered).
• The names that have been set for the recognized faces are displayed
(max. 3 persons).
• Only pictures of the selected registered people are played back ([Category
Selection]).
●
Only the first picture of an exposure series will contain Face Recognition information.
●
If you press the shutter button halfway, then point the camera at a different subject
and take the picture, the information for a different person may be put on the picture.
●
Face Recognition does not work in the following cases:
• With Motion pictures
• With the Scene Modes ([Panorama Shot] [Night Scenery] [Handheld Night Shot]
[Food] [3D Photo Mode] )
• With [Creative Control] Mode ([Miniature Effect] [Soft Focus])
●
Face Recognition searches for faces similar to those registered, but there is no
guarantee it will always recognize these faces. In some cases, the camera cannot
recognize or incorrectly recognizes even registered people depending on their
expression or the environment.
●
Even if Face Recognition information is registered, pictures recorded when the
name function is set to [OFF] are not categorized for Face Recognition in [Category
Selection].
●
Even if Face Recognition information is changed, Face Recognition information
for previously recorded pictures is not changed.
For example, if a name is changed, pictures recorded before the change are not
categorized for Face Recognition in [Category Selection].
●
To change name information for pictures already recorded, perform a [REPLACE]
(→180) in [Face Rec Edit].
