Face Detection

When the face detection function is activated, the camera will detect people’s faces. When there are a number of
people in the picture, one person will be determined to be the main subject but you have the option to select a
different person as the main subject. The camera will keep tracking the main subject even when it moves.
You can use face detection with one of the autofocus functions to let the camera focus on the main subject
automatically (Face AF). You can also combine face detection with the Dual Pixel Focus Guide function (A 82)
to help you focus on the main subject manually.

5 Point the camera at the subject.

A face detection frame will appear around all detected faces. The person identified as main subject will have
a face detection frame with small arrows (
Þ
) on the sides. If necessary, push the joystick left/right or
touch the desired subject on the LCD screen to change the main subject when there is more than one
person.
During continuous AF, the camera will keep focusing on the main subject’s face. During one-shot AF, the
camera will focus on the main subject’s face while you hold the ONE-SHOT AF button pressed down.
If you use face detection together with the tracking function (A 88), the camera will be able to track the
selected main subject more reliably.
Options
[Face Priority]: When there is no face detected, the camera focuses automatically according to the AF mode
currently selected.
[Face Only]: When there is no face detected, the camera locks the focus.
