• The camera’s ability to detect faces depends on a variety of factors, including whether or
not the subject is facing the camera.
• The camera will focus continuously until a face detected.
• If the yellow double border blinks when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the
camera was unable to focus. Release the button and try again.
• If no face is recognized when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the camera
focus is on the center of the frame.
• The camera may be unable to detect faces in the following situations;
- When faces are partially hidden by sunglasses or other obstructions
- When faces take up too much or too little of the frame
