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. Additionally, the camera may be unable to 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
When the frame includes more than one face, the faces detected by the camera and the face on
which the camera focuses depend upon a variety of factors, including the direction in which the
faces are looking.
In some rare cases, such as those described in “Subjects Not Suitable for Autofocus” (A77), the
subject may not be in focus even though the double border turns green. If the camera does not
focus, try focus lock shooting (A78).
