to concentrate on the creative side of your recording.
None
"Face Detection"
Records under the optimal condition by detecting faces automatically.
"Manual"
Manual focussing may be necessary under certain conditions that make automatic
focussing diffi cult or unreliable.
The Face Detection indicator ( ) and Face Detection frame ( ) are not
recorded.
Framing a person’s face while Face Detection is set will adjust focus and
exposure to optimal values automatically.
Face Detection may not operate depending on the recording conditions.
For example, the Face Detection Frame may appear when framing a
"face-like" shape, even when the subject is not a person's face.
If this occurs, turn off the Face Detection feature.
The Face Detection feature will not work when framing the side of a person's
face. You must be facing them "head-on."
Face Detection will not work in
"Web Fine" and "Web Normal" modes.
