Nikon coolpix L16?

Question

I'm having a bit of trouble getting the face detection. I know a yellow box comes up around the face and everything, but I can't get the boxes to come up. I got the face detection once or twice- the first time was when I turned on the camera for the first time and poited it at a face, the other time I was just taking a normal picture. I can't seem to get it up anymore. Is there a button you need to press to get it up? I know thats what you have to do with newer versions.

Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

If you changed the setting in auto mode, like a landscape mode, then the camera will not do face priority focusing. Put it back to easy mode and you should have face priority focusing again.
