Shooting If you register a person ahead of time, the camera will prioritize that person as the main subject, and optimize focus, brightness, and color for that person when shooting. zzWhen you point the camera toward people, the names of up to 3 registered people will be displayed when they are detected. zzShoot. zzDisplayed names will be recorded in still images. The names of detected people (maximum total of 5) will be recorded, even if the names are not displayed. ●● People other than those registered may be mistakenly detected as the registered person if they share similar facial features. ●● Registered people may not be correctly detected if the captured image or scene differs drastically from the registered face information. ●● If a registered face is not detected, or not easily detected, overwrite registered information with new face info. Registering face info right before shooting will allow for easier detection of registered faces. ●● If a person is mistakenly detected as another person and you continue shooting, you can edit or erase the name recorded in the image during playback (=113). ●● Because faces of babies and children change quickly as they grow, you should update their face info regularly (=46). ●● Names will still be recorded in images even if you clear the [Shooting Info] check box in "Customizing the Information Displayed" (= 101) so that the names are not displayed. ●● If you don't want names to be recorded in images, choose [Face ID Settings] on the [ 2] tab, choose [Face ID], and then choose [Off]. ●● You can check names recorded in images in the playback screen (simple information display) (=107). ●● In [ ] mode, names are not displayed on the shooting screen, but they will be recorded in still images. ●● Names recorded in continuous shooting (=44) continue to be recorded in the same position as the first shot, even if subjects move.
