• The flash will not fire when following step 2.
• If you do not register a birthday in step 3, Babies or Children icons
( = 33 ) will not be displayed in [ ] mode.
• You can overwrite registered face info, and add face info later if you have not
filled all 5 face info slots ( = 43 ).
Shooting
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.
z z When you point the camera toward a
subject, the names of up to 3 registered
people will be displayed when they are
detected.
z z Shoot.
z z 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.
• People other than those registered may be mistakenly detected as
the registered person if they share similar facial features.
• Registered people may not be correctly detected if the captured image or
scene differs drastically from the registered face information.
• If a registered face is not detected, or not easily detected, overwrite registered
information with new face info. Registering face info right before shooting will
allow for easier detection of registered faces.
• If a person is mistakenly detected as another person and you continue
shooting, you can edit or erase the name recorded in the image during
playback ( = 108 ).
• Because faces of babies and children change quickly as they grow, you should
update their face info regularly ( = 43 ).
• When the screen is set to off ( = 23 ), names for detected faces are not
displayed, but they will be recorded with images.
• Names will still be recorded in images even if you clear the [Shooting Info]
check box in [Custom Display] ( = 95 ) on the [ 4] tab so that the names are
not displayed.
• If you don’t want names to be recorded in still images, choose [Face ID
Settings] on the [ 4] tab, choose [Face ID], and then choose [Off].
• You can check names recorded in images in the playback screen (simple
information display) ( = 103 ).
• In [ ] mode, names are not displayed on the shooting screen, but they will be
recorded in still images.
