Constantly Displaying Faces at the Same Size

When a person’s face is detected, the camera will try to maintain a constant

face size relative to the screen. If the person moves closer, the camera will

automatically zoom out, and vice versa.

To cancel constant face size display,

press the < > button again. [ Auto:

Off] is displayed.

Faces may not be displayed at a constant size if the subject’s head

is tilted or facing the camera indirectly.

Similarly, it may not be possible to maintain a constant face display

size at some zoom factors.

This feature is not activated even if you press the < > button when

you have disabled [ Auto] (by pressing the <

n> button and

choosing [

4] tab > [ Auto] > [Off] (

=

)).

In Auto mode, some shooting information is not displayed, and

some shooting settings cannot be configured.

During movie recording, camera operating sounds such as zooming

will be recorded.

To shoot continuously, access [

W]. Note that continuous shooting is

not available if you choose [ ].

If the person moves toward the edge of the screen, the camera will zoom out

automatically to keep the person in view.

You can switch from tracking one face to another when several faces are

detected by pressing the <

b> button. [ ] is displayed around the new

subject. However, switching the [ ] frame with the <

b> button is not possible

during movie recording.

The zoom factor will remain the same after you press the shutter button all the

way down in self-timer mode (

=

34

), even if the relative face size changes.

[AF Frame] is set to [Face AiAF] and cannot be changed.
