Using AF to Focus
2
Focus the subject.
 
Press the shutter button halfway and 
the camera will focus the face 
covered by the <p> frame.
X
When focus is achieved, the AF point 
will turn green and the beeper will 
sound.
X
If focus is not achieved, the AF point 
will turn orange.
 
If a face cannot be detected, the AF 
point < > will be displayed and AF 
will be executed at the center.

Take the picture.
 
Check the focus and exposure, then 
press the shutter button completely to 
take the picture (p.127).
 
If the focus is way off, face detection will not be possible. If the lens 
enables manual focusing even while the lens focus mode switch is set to 
<f>, turn the focusing ring to attain rough focus. The face will then be 
detected and <p> will be displayed.
 
An object other than a human face might be detected as a face.
 
Face detection will not work if the face is very small or large in the 
picture, too bright or too dark, titled horizontally or diagonally, or partially 
hidden.
 
The <p> focusing frame might cover only part of the face.
