Activate face detection.
To select the main subject
If there is more than one person in the picture, the camcorder will auto-
matically select one person it determines is the main subject. The main
subject is indicated by a white face detection frame and the camcorder
will optimize the settings for that person. Other faces will have gray
frames.
Touch a different face on the
touch screen to optimize the
camcorder’s settings for that
person using the Touch &
Track function.
NOTES
The camcorder may mistakenly detect the faces of non-human sub-
jects. In such case, turn face detection off.
In certain cases, faces may not be detected correctly. Typical examples
include:
- 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 [
¹
PF24] or [
»
24P]) or
when the digital zoom is activated at more than 144x zoom.
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 [
¹
PF24] or [
»
24P]).
