Touch the face with the double-lined frame 
again to cancel.
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
When [SMILE DETECTION] is set to [DUAL 
CAPTURE], 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. 91) 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
