Prioritizing the subject
When [FACE DETECTION] (p. 82) is set 
to [ON] (the default setting), and several 
faces are detected, touch the face you want 
to record as priority. Focus/color/exposure 
are adjusted automatically for the selected 
face. Since the face you touched has priority 
also with the Smile Shutter function, your 
camcorder records a photo automatically 
when it detects the smiling face.
Touch the face with the double-lined frame 
again to cancel. If you touch another face, 
the face with the double-lined frame is 
canceled and the double-lined frame is 
displayed around the new face.
Notes
The face you touched may not be detected, 
depending on the surrounding brightness or 
hairstyle of the subject. In this case, touch the 
face again when you record.
Tips
If you set [SMILE DETECTION] to [DUAL 
CAPTURE], or [ALWAYS ON] (p. 83), the 
face you touch also has priority with the Smile 
Shutter function, and your camcorder records a 
photo automatically when it detects a smile on 
the prioritized face.
The double-lined frame around a face targeted 
for possible smile detection shot turns orange.
If the face you touched disappears from the 
LCD screen, the subject selected in [PRIORITY 
SETTING] (p. 83) has priority. If the face you 
touched returns to the screen, the face has 
priority.
Capturing smiles automatically 
(Smile Shutter) 
A photo is recorded automatically when the 
camcorder detects the smile of a person. 
An orange frame appears around a face 
targeted for a possible smile detection shot.
In the default setting, the Smile Shutter 
function is set to [OFF]. When you use 
the function, change the setting of [SMILE 
DETECTION] (p. 83).
Notes
Smiles may not be detected depending on 
recording conditions, subject conditions, and 
the setting of your camcorder.
When [ REC MODE] is set to [HD FX], you 
cannot use the Smile Shutter function.
Tips
You can select the subject that has priority 
for face detection and smile detection with 
[PRIORITY SETTING] (p. 83). When you 
specify the priority subject by touching the 
detection frame on the LCD screen, the face 
with a double-lined frame has priority.
If a smile is not detected, set the [SMILE 
SENSITIVITY] (p. 83).
Touch the face you want to record as 
priority.
The double-lined frame is displayed.
