Default [Face Recog.] setting is [OFF].

When the face pictures are registered, the setting will be [ON] automatically.

How the Face Recognition function works

During recording

(When [AF Mode] is (Face Detection))

•The camera recognizes a registered face and adjusts

focus and exposure.

•When registered faces that have set names are

recognized, the names are displayed (max. 3 people).

During playback

•The name and age are displayed (if information is registered).

•The names that have been set for the recognized faces are displayed

(max. 3 people).

•Only pictures of the selected registered people are played back ([Category

Selection]).

Only the first picture of the burst recording will contain Face Recognition information.

If you press the shutter button halfway, then point the camera at a different subject

and record, recording information for a different person may be put on the picture.

Face Recognition does not work in the following cases:

•Motion picture

•Scene Modes ([Panorama Shot] [Night Scenery] [Handheld Night Shot] [Food]

[3D Photo Mode] )

•[Creative Control] Mode ([Miniature Effect] [Soft Focus])

Face Recognition searches for faces similar to those registered, but there is no

guarantee it will always recognize these faces. In some cases, the camera cannot

recognize or incorrectly recognizes even registered people depending on their

expression or the environment.

Even if Face Recognition information is registered, pictures recorded when the name

is [OFF] are not categorized for Face Recognition in [Category Selection].

Even if Face Recognition information is changed, Face Recognition information

for previously recorded pictures is not changed.

For example, if a name is changed, pictures recorded before the change are not

categorized for Face Recognition in [Category Selection].

To change name information for pictures already recorded, perform a [REPLACE]

(→181)

in [Face Rec Edit].
