70  Advanced Shooting

2 Point the camcorder at a person.

If there is more than one person in the picture, the camcorder will

automatically 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.

3 Touch a different face on the touch

screen to optimize the camcorder’s

settings for that person.

• You can also touch other moving

objects, such as a pet.

• A white double frame will appear

around the subject and track it as it

moves.

• Touch [Cancel £] to remove the frame and cancel the tracking.

NOTES

• The camcorder may mistakenly detect the faces of non-human sub-

jects. In such case, turn face detection off.

• When face detection is activated, the slowest shutter speed used by the

camcorder is 1/25.

• Touching somewhere with a color or pattern unique to the subject will

make it easier to track. However, if there is another subject in the vicinity

that shares similar characteristics to the selected subject, the cam-

corder may start tracking the incorrect subject. Touch the screen again

to select the desired subject.

• 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 1/25, when the digital zoom is activated at more than 228x zoom

or when using a smartphone or tablet to remotely control the cam-

corder.

• In certain cases, tracking may not be able to track the subject. Typical

examples include:

- Subjects extremely small or large in relation to the overall picture.

- Subjects too similar to the background.
