Using AF to Focus (AF Method)
If the subject’s face is significantly out of focus, face detection will not be
possible. You can prevent this by setting [Continuous AF] to [Enable].
An object other than a human face may be detected as a face.
Face detection will not work if the face is very small or large in the
picture, too bright or too dark, or partially hidden.
The <p> may cover only part of the face.
You can press <0> or the <L> button to display the AF point < > at
the center and use <9> to move the AF point.
Since AF is not possible with a face detected near the edge of the
picture, the <p> will be grayed out. If you press the shutter button
halfway, the subject will be focused in FlexiZone - Multi method with
automatic selection.
