Using Face Id - Canon IXUS 500 HS User Manual

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 A 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 (p. 132).
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 (p. 69).
Registering Face ID Information
You can register information (face info, name, birthday) for up to 12 people to
use with Face ID.
Access the setting screen.
Press the n button, choose [Face ID
Settings] on the 4 tab, and then press the
