Shooting Features
Using Face Detection
In the following shooting modes, the camera
uses face detection to automatically focus on
human faces.
• x (scene auto selector) mode (A23)
• Portrait or Night portrait scene mode
(A22)
• Smart portrait mode (A35)
• When AF area mode (A85) in A (auto)
mode (A21) is set to Face priority
If the camera detects more than one face, a double border is displayed around
the face that the camera focuses on, and single borders are displayed around
the other faces.
If the shutter button is pressed halfway when no faces are detected:
• In x (scene auto selector) mode, the focus area changes depending on the
scene.
• In Portrait and Night portrait scene modes or in smart portrait mode, the
camera focuses in the center of the frame.
• In A (auto) mode, the camera selects the focus area containing the subject
closest to the camera.
B Notes About Face Detection
• The camera’s ability to detect faces depends on a variety of factors, including the
direction in which the faces are looking.
• The camera cannot detect faces in the following situations:
- When faces are partially hidden by sunglasses or otherwise obstructed
- When faces take up too much or too little of the frame
