A camera that recognizes your girlfriend to get her out better
The degree of changes that are coming to the automation of cameras continues to amaze me. For some time now manufacturers got the cameras could recognize the faces of people, with the aim of the settings (focus and exposure, basically) were made for that particular point, thus eliminating the backlight and other common faults on the snapshots. After the function was extended so that I could identify faces at the time, but then there is a problem ...
While the group is at the same distance and with the same light, so good, but what if not? Imagine that some are closer than others, and the depth of field is not enough for everyone out to focus the camera how do you decide who is more important? Imagine you're in the shadow of the beach bar with your girlfriend, you do a picture, and the camera decides to focus on and correctly expose the Swedish sunbathing topless 100 meters behind ... "Do not, Mary, which has been the single camera, the detection of ... "It's late. Do not try to explain it.
So to prevent premature separation "technical reasons", Fujifilm has perfected the recognition of faces of their new cameras J series , and they added the ability not only to recognize faces, but also identify them by name. You can store up to eight faces, and when detected in a photo, along with other faces "anonymous" will give priority to properly expose and focus specifically on those faces. Thus, the Swede will focus and overexposed to the bottom and you will save a disappointment.
I have no very clear is that if two or more recognizes registered faces in a photo (you can target five at the time). Do you prioritize in a certain order? Does he know the camera is more important to get right Mary, your friend, Pepe? Also have to see what happens if left beard (Pepe, of course) or change the hair cut, any person registered.
In addition, Fujifilm has also begun to experiment with other faces, and the FinePix JZ500 can recognize the faces of dogs and cats, although in this case only the face and not identified. Someone asked me if I recognize also guinea pigs, and whether to identify them also have whiskers like a cat ... The truth is that I have no idea what will happen if a guinea pig pictures, but when not identified as Mary, do not think you should worry.
