From the review (http://www.dcresource.com/reviews/canon/powershot_s5-review/) on this site:Below the four-way controller are the Set and Menu buttons. In addition to its duties as the "ok" button in menus, the Set button also activates the camera's FlexiZone autofocus system. This lets you use the four-way controller to select a point in the frame on which to focus. This comes in handy when the camera is on a tripod. When FlexiZone is turned off, the button toggles between center-frame and face detection AF. Yes, the PowerShot S5 has face detection, it works quite well. The camera will lock onto as many as nine faces, and will make sure that they are properly exposed.

Your manual must have some blank pages! :D

The info you're looking for starts on Page 69...

Thanks, I was using the downloaded manual. The face detection has improved the people pictures.
