≥ This function is not displayed during the face-to-face recording or Playback Mode.
Detected faces appear with frames.
≥ Change the mode to   or  .
≥
Up to 15 frames are indicated. Larger faces and faces nearer to the center of the screen take 
preference over others. When [FACE RECOG.] is [ON] registered people are given priority.
∫ Prioritized face framing
Prioritized face framing is displayed in orange. Focus and adjustment of brightness will be 
performed against the prioritized face framing.
≥Prioritized face framing is only  displayed in Intelligent Auto Mode.
≥ Focus will be set to prioritized face framing when the   button is pressed halfway when 
recording still pictures. Prioritized face framing will turn to green when the focus is set.
If the unit continues to be tilted upside down from the normal horizontal position while 
recording motion pictures, it is automatically put into recording pause.

™ technology.
≥ Change the mode to  .
≥ Switch to Manual Mode. ( l82)
≥ For more realistic colors, use an HDMI mini cable with a TV that supports the x.v.Color
™.
≥This function cannot be used when switch to Intelligent Auto Mode.
≥ When motion pictures recorded while this function is turned [ON] are played back 
with a TV not compatible with x.v.Color
™, colors may not be reproduced properly.
≥ To play back images recorded in Digital cine ma color with vivid colors of wider color 
ranges, a device compatible with x.v.Color
™ is required. When these images are played 
back with devices other than ones compatible with x.v.Color™, it is recommended to record 
the images after this function is turned [OFF].
≥ x.v.Color
™ is a name for devices that are compatible with the xvYCC format, an 
international standard for expanded color in motion pictures, and that follow the rules for 
signal transmission.
Message is displayed when this unit is moved rapidly.
≥ Change the mode to  .
When “CAMERA PANNING IS TOO FAST.” appears, move the unit slowly while recording.
≥ Set to [OFF] to turn off the message indication.

[SURROUND]:Sound is recorded with 5.1 ch surround microphone.
[ZOOM MIC]:Directivity of the microphone is synchronized with the zoom 
operation. Sounds near the front of the unit are recorded more 
clearly if you zoom in (close-up) and surrounding sounds are 
recorded more realistically if you zoom out (wide angle).
[FOCUS MIC]:Directivity of the center is enhanced for recording audio 
near the front of the unit more clearly.
[STEREO MIC]:Sound from two directions is recorded in 2 ch by forward-
facing stereo microphones.
