Using Face ID
If you register a person ahead of time, the camera will detect that person’ s 
face, and prioritize focus, brightness, and color for that person when 
shooting. In [
] mode, the camera can detect babies and children based 
on registered birthdays and optimize settings for them when shooting.
This function is also useful when searching for a specific registered person 
among a large number of images ( =
  88).
Personal Information
•	Information such as images of a face (face info) registered with Face ID, 
and personal information (name, birthday) will be saved on the camera. 
Additionally, when registered people are detected, their names will be 
recorded in still images. When using the Face ID function, be careful 
when sharing the camera or images with others, and when posting 
images online where many others can view them.
•	 When disposing of a camera or transferring it to another person after 
using Face ID, be sure to erase all information (registered faces, names, 
and birthdays) from the camera ( =
  46).

You can register information (face info, name, birthday) for up to 12 people 
to use with Face ID.
1 Access the setting screen.
zzPress the  button, choose [Face 
ID Settings] on the [4] tab, and then 
press the  button (=
  29).
zzPress the  buttons to choose 
[Add to Registry], and then press the 
 button.
zzPress the  buttons to choose 
[Add a New Face], and then press the 
 button.
2 Register face information.
zzAim the camera so that the face of the 
person you want to register is inside the 
gray frame at the center of the screen.
zzA white frame on the person’s face 
indicates that the face is recognized. 
Make sure a white frame is displayed on 
the face, and then shoot.
zzIf the face is not recognized, you cannot 
register face information.
zzAfter [Register?] is displayed, press the 
 buttons to choose [OK], and 
then press the  button.

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.
XXWhen you point the camera toward a 
subject, the names of up to 3 registered 
people will be displayed when they are 
detected.
zzShoot.
XXDisplayed names will be recorded in still 
images. Even if people are detected, but 
their names are not displayed, the names 
(up to 5 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.
•	 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 shoot\
ing 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 ( =
  90).
•	 Because faces of babies and children change quickly as they grow , you should 
update their face info regularly ( =
  45).
•	 When information display is set to off (=  27), names will not display, but will 
be recorded in the image.
•	 If you don’t want names to be recorded in still images, choose [Face ID 
Settings] on the [4] tab, choose [Face ID], and then choose [Off].
•	 You can check names recorded in images in the playback screen (simple 
information display) ( =
  84).
•	 In [] mode, names are not displayed on the shooting screen, but they will be 
recorded in still images.
