Appendix
 
People other than those registered may be mistakenly detected 
as the registered person if they share similar facial features.
 
Registered people may not be correctly detected if the captured 
image or scene differs drastically from the registered face 
information.
 
If a registered face is not detected, or not easily detected, 
overwrite registered information with new face info. Registering 
face info right before shooting will allow for easier detection of 
registered faces.
 
If a person is mistakenly detected as another person and you 
continue shooting, you can edit or erase the name recorded in the 
image during playback (= 93).
 
Because faces of babies and children change quickly as they 
grow, you should update their face info regularly (= 46).
 
If you don’t want names to be recorded in still images, choose 
[Face ID Settings] on the [
] tab, choose [Face ID], and then 
choose [Off].
 
You can check names recorded in images in the playback screen 
(simple information display) (= 88).
 
In [
] mode, names are not displayed on the shooting screen, 
but they will be recorded in still images.
 
Names recorded in continuous shooting (= 44, = 80) 
continue to be recorded in the same position as the first shot, 
even if subjects move.
Checking and Editing Registered Information
Access the [Check/Edit Info] screen.
 
Following step 1 in “Registering Face ID 
Edit Info] and press the [ ] button.
Continue registering face 
information.
 
To register up to 4 more points of face 
information (expressions or angles), 
repeat step 2.
 
Registered faces are more easily 
recognized if you add a variety of face 
information. In addition to a head-on 
angle, add a slight side angle, a shot 
when smiling, and shots inside and 
outside.
 
The flash will not fire when following step 2.
 
If you do not register a birthday in step 3, Babies or Children icons 
(= 37) will not be displayed in [
] mode.
 
You can overwrite registered face info, and add face info later if 
you have not filled all 5 face info slots (= 46).
Shooting
If you register a person ahead of time, the camera will prioritize that 
person as the main subject, and optimize focus, brightness, and color for 
that person when shooting.
 
When you point the camera toward people, 
the names of up to 3 registered people will 
be displayed when they are detected.
 
Shoot.
 
Displayed names will be recorded in still 
images. The names of detected people 
(maximum total of 5) will be recorded, 
even if the names are not displayed.
