Selects whether to use the Face Detect function or not.

Available only for [Soft Snap] when you select the Scene Selection mode. In this case, the
Face Detection mode is set to [On] as the default.

Up to 8 faces in your subject can be detected. When you shoot images with [Soft Snap], the
number of faces in your subject that can be detected will be limited to up to 2 faces.

When more than one face is detected in your subject, the priority for the focus point is
automatically given to one of the persons identified as the main subject by the camera .

When you press and hold the shutter button halfway down to focus, the frame around the
subject in focus changes to green. If the frame does not change to green, a subject at the
same distance as the main subject is also in focus.

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.
