Taking Pictures

Face Priority is always on and pressing the button switches between

Face Priority and Face Selection in the following modes.

• Auto Picture

• Natural Skin Tone

•Portrait

• Half-length Portrait

•Kids

You can also turn Face Priority on or off and switch to Face Selection by

pressing the button in the other modes.

• Up to 15 faces can be recognized.

• When you turn on Face Selector, the person closest to the center

with the most visible face shown on the display is initially selected.

• If the person moves or the arrangement is changed after selecting

a face with Face Selector, you must reselect a face. This avoids

focusing on the wrong person.

• The face of the person selected with Face Selector is shown first

while enlarging faces in Playback mode.

• If you switch to Face Selector and either press OK or do nothing

for 5 seconds, the selection information at that point is saved and

the Face Priority screen appears.

• When Face Priority is on, both “Face Recognition AF (Auto

Focus)” and “Face Recognition AE (Auto Exposure)” are active

during shooting regardless of the Capture mode or whether Face

Selector is used.

• “Face Recognition AF” and “Face Recognition AE” may not work

if the subject’s face is partly covered, for example, with

sunglasses, or when the subject does not face the camera.

• During Continuous Shooting, face information is recorded for the

first image only.
