The Face Detection indicator ( ) and Face Detection frame ( ) are not recorded.
Framing a person’s face while Face Detection is set will adjust focus and exposure to optimal
values automatically.
Face Detection may not operate depending on the recording conditions. For example, the Face
Detection Frame may appear when framing a "face-like" shape, even when the subject is not a
person's face. If this occurs, turn off the Face Detection feature.
The Face Detection feature will not work when framing the side of a person's face or operating
while lack of illumination. You must be facing them "head-on" or occupying enough illumination.
