Face Detection with Handycam®

Face Detection

Beautiful ‘people pictures’ in any situation

Think of all those unforgettable moments you’d love to capture. Birthday parties and weddings. Family holidays. Your child’s first smile, first steps or first words. It’s no surprise they’re some of most popular subjects for anyone who’s got a camcorder.

Ensuring clear, natural looking ‘people pictures’ can be tricky. If there’s a lot happening in a scene it’s a challenge to make sure that your subject is in sharp focus.

Similarly, faces can look dark and underexposed in bright, backlit situations like a sun-drenched beach. And if you’re shooting indoors there’s a risk that your subject’s skin tone can look unnaturally coloured.

Now there’s an easy way to get better looking people pictures. Handycam® with Face Detection ensures beautifully clear, sharp images of people in virtually any situation.

Handycam HDR-TG3

Great results without hassle

Handycam® with Face Detection uses advanced Sony technology to detect human faces, adjusting focus, exposure and colour settings for the best possible results.

Face Detection now features on an even wider range of High Definition and Standard Definition Handycam® models.

It operates automatically, so there’s no need to worry about fiddling with settings while you’re shooting.

Face Detection works with video as well as stills, so it’s useful for capturing beautiful portraits even if you haven’t got your digital still camera handy.

It’s even smart enough to recognise up to eight people at once, so your camcorder can cope effortlessly with party scenes or family gatherings.

Faces as pretty as a picture. It’s easy with Handycam®.
