Notes When Shooting
• It may be difficult to focus on the subject in
the following situations:
• In low-light or back-lit conditions
• When the subject is in shadow
• When the subject is very out of focus
It may be difficult to focus on eyes in the
following situations even when the camera
recognizes eyes:
• When the eyes are closed
• When the eyes are covered by hair, etc.
• When the person is wearing spectacles
(sunglasses)
There are also other situations in which it
may not be possible to focus on the subject.
• When the camera cannot focus on the part
you want to prioritize, such as the eyes of
the subject, the camera may automatically
focus on other recognized parts such as the
head or body of the subject.
• Even when a white subject recognition
frame is displayed around the subject's face,
etc., the camera may automatically focus on
the part you want to prioritize, such as the
subject's eyes.
• The subject may not be recognized when
only a part of the subject is within the angle
of view.
– When only the hands and feet of a person
or animal are visible
– When a part of the subject is hidden and
cannot be seen, etc.
• The camera may accidentally recognize
other objects as the designated subject
under some conditions.
