Face Detection AF/AE Function
This function is only available in Portrait and
Night Portrait capture modes. When the
shutter button is pressed halfway, the face
detection function is activated. When the subject’s
face is detected, the green focus frames appear on
the LCD screen. Then the camera automatically
adjusts the focus point and exposure to the
optimized value.
However, when the camera fails to detect your subject’s face, the camera will set
the focus to Multi-Zone with a green or red focus frame.
