appropriate Scene Mode.

exposure are adjusted for the recognised faces.
 
About Backlight Compensation
Backlight compensation is automatically activated in [Intelligent Auto] mode. Backlight 
is a condition where a light shines from behind a subject. When there is a backlight, 
the subject appears darker and the camera will automatically attempt to correct it by 
increasing the brightness of the picture. When the camera detects backlight, [   ] is 
displayed on the screen (depending on the backlighting conditions, backlighting may 
not be detected correctly).
