Shooting Features
Focusing
Using Face Detection
In the following shooting modes, the camera uses face
detection to automatically focus on people’s faces.
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.
1
If the camera detects both people and pets in the same shot, the camera can detect up to 12
faces.
2
If the camera detects a person’s face and a pet’s face in the same shot, it focuses on the pet’s face.
• If no faces are detected when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the camera
focuses on the subject in the center of the frame.
• You may hear the sound of the camera focusing.
