Because the camera searches for facesthat are similar to registered faces, there are cases where the faces are not correctly recognized when the registeredimage and the shooting image varies much. When facial characteristics are similar, particularly between parents and theirchildren or brothers and sisters, the camera may not distinguish the faces.Lens Construction 12 elements in 9 groups (1 Aspherical lens)Mount Micro Four Thirds mountOptical Image Stabilizer YesFocal Length f=14mm to 42mm (35mm camera equivalent 28mm to 84mm)Aperture Type 7 diaphragm blades / Circular aperture diaphragmAperture F3.5 (Wide) - F5.6 (Tele)Minimum Aperture F22Closest Focusing Distance 0.3 m / 1 ftMaximum Magnification Approx. 0.16x / 0.32x (35mm camera equivalent)Diagonal Angle of View 75° (W) - 29° (T)Filter Size Ø52mm / 2.05 inMax.
