# Cautions
• Face priority applies only to the first shot in each sequence taken during sequential
shooting.
• Depending on the subject, the camera may not be able to correctly detect the face.
• In metering modes other than [
p (Digital ESP metering)], the camera will meter exposure
for the selected position.
$ Notes
• Face priority is also available in [MF]. Faces detected by the camera are indicated by
white frames.
