The camera automatically detects up to five human faces, indicated by frames on the screen. The
camera automatically focuses on the nearest face. You can also select which face to focus on by
tapping it on the screen. When you tap the camera screen, a yellow frame shows which face is selected
and in focus. Face detection cannot be used for all scene types. Continuous autofocus is on.

detail and produces a picture that is representative of both dark and bright areas.
