Move the white detection frame to the person for whom you want to optimize the camcorder's settings. NOTES Main subject • The camcorder may mistakenly detect the faces of non-human subjects. In such case, turn face detection off. • In certain cases, faces may not be detected correctly. Typical examples include: - Faces that appear at the edges of the picture. - Faces extremely small, large, dark or bright in relation to the overall picture. - Faces turned to the side, at a diagonal or partially hidden. • Face detection cannot be used when the shutter speed used is slower than 1/30 (1/24 if the frame rate is set to [ PF24]) or when the digital zoom is activated at more than 60x zoom (dark blue area on the zoom bar). • When face detection is activated, the slowest shutter speed used by the camcorder is 1/30 (1/24 if the frame rate is set to [ PF24]). White Balance The white balance function helps you to accurately reproduce colors under different lighting conditions so that white objects will always look truly white in your recordings. ( 34) POINTS TO CHECK • Select a recording program other than the Special Scene recording pro- grams. Video Š 73
