B Face-Priority
When [Face priority] is selected for [AF area mode], the setting will automatically switch to [Auto] if
no face is recognized when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway.
If no face is recognized when the shutter-release button is pressed halfway in [Portrait] or [Night
portrait] scene mode, the camera will focus on the subject in the center focus area.
The camera may be unable to detect faces in the following situations:
- When faces are partially hidden by sunglasses or other obstructions
- When faces take up too much or too little of the frame
- When the subject is not looking directly at the camera
The camera’s ability to detect faces depends on a variety of factors, including whether or not the
subject is facing the camera.
In some rare cases shooting subjects with which autofocus may not perform as expected (A 23),
the subject may not be in focus despite the fact that the focus area glows green. Should this occur,
switch to A (auto) mode or change the [AF area mode] setting to [Manual] or [Center] in high-
sensitivity shooting, P, and M modes, refocus on another subject positioned at the same distance
from the camera as the actual portrait subject, and use focus lock (A 23).
If [Face priority] is selected for [AF area mode] with framing guides displayed, the monitor setting
changes so that shooting data is displayed.
When a face is detected during shooting, pictures will be rotated automatically, in full-frame and
thumbnail playback modes, according to the orientation of the face detected.
