Taking a Picture with Face Recognition Function

Face Recognition is a function which finds a face resembling a registered face and
prioritizes focus and exposure automatically. Even if the person is located towards the
back or on the end of a line in a group photo, the camera can still take a clear picture.

The following functions will also work with the Face Recognition
function.

In Recording Mode

Display of corresponding name when camera detects a registered
face

¢

(if name has been set for the registered face)

The camera will remember the face that has been photographed
many times and display the registration screen automatically
(if [AUTO REGISTRATION] is set to [ON])

In Playback

Mode

Display of name and age (if information has been registered)

Selective playback of pictures chosen from pictures registered with Face Recognition
([CATEGORY PLAY]

(P138)

)

¢ Names of up to 3 people are displayed. Precedence for the names displayed when taking

pictures is determined according to the order of registration.

Note

[AF MODE] is fixed to [š].

During the Burst Mode, [FACE RECOG.] picture information can be attached to only the first
picture.

After pressing the shutter halfway down, a different person’s picture information may be added
when the camera is turned to a different subject to photograph.

[FACE RECOG.] can be used in the following Scene Modes.

[PORTRAIT]/[SOFT SKIN]/[SELF PORTRAIT]

¢

/[SCENERY]/[SPORTS]/

[NIGHT PORTRAIT]/[PARTY]/[CANDLE LIGHT]/[BABY1]/[BABY2]/[PET]/[SUNSET]/
[HIGH SENS.]/[BEACH]/[SNOW]/[PIN HOLE]/[HIGH DYNAMIC]/[PHOTO FRAME]

¢ [AUTO REGISTRATION] is fixed to [OFF].

[FACE RECOG.] will find a face similar to the registered face, and does not guarantee secure
recognition of a person.

Face Recognition may take more time to select and recognize distinctive facial features than
regular Face Detection.

Even when Face Recognition information has been registered, pictures taken with [NAME] set
to [OFF] will not be categorized by Face Recognition in [CATEGORY PLAY].

Even when Face Recognition information is changed

(P100)

, Face Recognition

information for the pictures already taken will not be changed.

categorized by Face Recognition in [CATEGORY PLAY].

[FACE REC EDIT]
