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 (= 91).
 
Because faces of babies and children change quickly as they 
grow, you should update their face info regularly (= 46).
 
If you do not 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) (= 85).
 
In [
] mode, names are not displayed on the shooting screen, 
but they will be recorded in still images.
 
Names recorded in continuous shooting (= 44, = 78) continue to be 
recorded in the same position as the first shot. Names are recorded in the 
same position as the first shot for additional shots, 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.
Choose a person to check or edit 
their information.
 
Press the [ ][ ][ ][ ] buttons to choose 
the person whose information you want 
to check or edit, and then press the [ ] 
button.
Continue registering face information.
 
To register up to four more items of face 
information, repeat step 2.
 
Registered faces are more easily 
recognized if you add a variety of face 
information such as a slight side angle, a 
shot when smiling, and shots inside and 
outside, in addition to a head-on angle.
 
The flash will not fire when following step 2.
 
If you do not register a birthday in step 3, Babies or Children icons 
will not be displayed in [
 
You can overwrite registered face info, and add face info later if 
you have not filled all five face info slots (= 46).
Shooting
If you register people ahead of time, the camera will prioritize them as the 
main subject, and optimize focus, brightness, and color for them when 
shooting.
 
When you point the camera toward a subject, 
the names of up to three registered people 
will be displayed when they are detected.
 
Shoot.
 
Displayed names will be recorded in still 
images. Even if people are detected, but their 
names are not displayed, the names (up to 
five people) will be recorded in the image.
 
People other than those registered may be mistakenly detected 
as the registered person if they share similar facial features.
