Recording
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.
[Face Recog.] is initially set to [OFF] on the camera.
[Face Recog.] will turn [ON] automatically when the face image is registered.
"The following functions will also work with the Face Recognition
function.
In Recording Mode
-Display of corresponding name when camera detects a registered
face I (if name has been set for the registered face)
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 Selection] (P98) in [Filtering Play]).
Names of up to 3 people are displayed. Precedence for the names displayed when taking
pictures is determined according to the order of registration.
• During the Burst Mode, [Face Recog.] picture information can be attached to only the first
picture.

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

to [OFF] will not be categorized by Face Recognition in [Category Selection] ([Filtering Play]).
•Even when Face Recognition information is changed (P79}, Face Recognition
information for the pictures already taken will not be changed.

categorized by Face Recognition in [Category Selection] ([Filtering Play])
