Face Detection frame
• When the product detects a face, the
gray face detection frame appears. When
the product determines that autofocus is
enabled, the face detection frame turns
white. When you press the shutter button
halfway down, the frame turns green.
• In case you have registered the priority
order for each face using [Face Registration],
the product automatically selects the first
prioritized face and the face detection frame
over that face turns white. The face detection
frames of other registered faces turn reddish-
purple.
