Canon 500 HS - Manual (Page 61)

Using Face ID
62
Continue registering face
information.
z To register up to 4 more points of face
information (expressions or angles), repeat
steps 2 – 3.
z Registered faces are more easily recognized
if you add a variety of face information. In
addition to a head-on angle, add a slight side
angle, a shot when smiling, and shots inside
and outside.
If you register a person ahead of time, the camera will prioritize that person
as the main subject, and optimize focus, brightness, and color for that person
when shooting.
X When you point the camera toward a subject,
the names of up to 3 registered people will be
displayed when they are detected.
z Shoot.
X Displayed names will be recorded in still
images. Even if people are detected, but their
names are not displayed, the names (up to 5
people) will be recorded in the image.
• The flash will not fire when following step 2.
• If you do not register a birthday in step 5, Babies or Children icons
(p. 49) will not display in
A mode.
• You can overwrite registered face info, and add face info later if you have not
filled all 5 face info slots (p. 64).
Shooting
• People other than those registered may be mistakenly detected as
the registered person if they share similar facial features.
