Taking pictures with Auto Focus
Taking front-on pictures of people (Face/Eye Detection)
The camera automatically detects the faces and eyes of subjects. The camera adjusts
the focus on the eye that is closer to the camera and the exposure using the face (when
[Metering Mode] is set to [ ] (Multi Metering)).
• The camera can detect up to 15 faces. The camera can detect only the eyes of faces to
be focused on.
When the camera recognised a face, the AF area and eye
used for focusing are displayed.
Eye used for focusing
Yellow: When the shutter button is pressed halfway and the
subject is focused, the frame turns green.
White: Displayed when more than one face is detected.
Other faces that are the same distance away as faces
within the yellow AF area are also focused.
■

If you touch a location outside the yellow frame, the AF area setting
