Taking Pictures
With this camera, the Face Detection function
is available with all shooting modes.
When the camera detects a person’s face in the
image, the Face Detection function displays a
yellow face detection frame around the face on
the display screen, sets the focus (Face
Detection AF) and compensates the exposure
(Face Detection AE).
If the subject in the face detection frame moves,
the frame also moves and changes its own size
as it tracks the face.
The Face Detection function can detect up to
32 people’s faces. If it detects multiple faces,
the camera displays a yellow frame over the
main face and white frame(s) over the other
face(s). It can display up to a total of 31 frames,
including a main frame and white frame(s).
By default, the Face Detection function is set to Face Detection On. You
can switch to the Smile Capture function, which automatically releases
Using the Face Detection Function
•
Face Detection AF and AE may not work if the subject is wearing sunglasses,
has part of their face covered or is not looking toward the camera.
• If the camera cannot detect the subject’s face, the camera focuses
using the setting currently selected in [Focusing Area].
•
When the Smile Capture function is activated, the shutter may not be
released automatically because the Smile Capture function may not
work in some situations, such as when the detected face is too small.
•
When a pet is detected in
b
(Auto Picture) or
e
(Pet) mode, a light
blue pet detection frame appears, and the shutter is automatically
released.
