Selects whether to use the Face Detect function or not.

When you select Portrait, the default setting will be [On].

Up to 8 faces of your subjects can be detected. However, only up to 2 faces of your subjects
can be detected when you shoot images with Portrait.

When the camera detects more than subjects, the camera will judge which is the main
subject and set focus by priority.

The frame which the focus is set will turn green by pressing the shutter button half way
down. Even when the frame does not turn green, if the distance of the subject which the
focus is set on and other subjects are the same, the focus is set on all subjects.

Face Detection may fail, depending on the conditions under which it is used.

When [Face Detection] is set to [On], AF illuminator does not function.

When [Face Detection] is set to [On], you cannot use the Digital Zoom.
