Notes
Do not cover the infrared port (p. 122) with
your fingers or other objects.
Remove the lens hood (supplied) before
using [NIGHTSHOT Light], because the lens

Remove the conversion lens (sold separately).
The maximum shooting distance using
[NIGHTSHOT Light] is about 3 m (10 feet).

Face Detection
You can set the camcorder to detect a
face automatically. Furthermore, you can
select which faces (children or adults) the
camcorder detects with priority.
It adjusts the focus/color/exposure
automatically for the face of the selected
subject. Also, it adjusts the image quality
of face parts more finely, in the case of the
high definition image quality (HD) movies.
 Auto
Detects faces without distinction between
adults and children.
Child Priority
Gives faces of children priority.
Adult Priority
Gives faces of adults priority.
Off ( )
Does not detect faces.
Notes
Faces may not be detected depending on
recording conditions, subject conditions, and
the setting of your camcorder.
[Face Detection] may not function properly
depending on recording conditions. Set [Face
Detection] to [Off] in this case.
Tips
For better face detection performance, shoot the
subject(s) under the following conditions:
Shoot in a sufficiently bright place
The subject(s) does not wear glasses, a hat
or mask
The subject(s) faces directly towards the
camera
If you select a subject which has priority by
touching the frame that has appeared around
the subject’s face, a double-lined frame will
appear and that face has priority.
