#4 Face Detection Auto Focus

..oh, and FOLLOW FOCUS TOO:

As a portrait photography (primarily) I rely on being able to focus on the face, and hopefully I am able to hit the eyes with my focus node….But sometimes we miss it when people are moving. With our DSLRs we are moving that little focus spot around to stay on the face…..

But NOW, with my Lumix, that problem is solved! I use Face Detection auto focus, which actually identifies the eyes on a face (yes, even pets) and literally follows the face wherever it goes! You will see a small yellow square around each face in focus and even a light cross hair showing you WHICH eye it is targeting! NO KIDDING! I know it sounds like Panasonic is trying to give you every feature you could possibly ever want… maybe they are!

But that’s not all! Wherever the face goes, it follows! And it works in slow motion video too– like this 50 foot run on a slip n slide in Canada at Image Explorations! Pretty impressive ~ and to be totally honest, its a vital tool for any portrait photographer!
