      By the way, a friend had a new camera which has face recognition built in. I think it's so that the camera will always focus on the people within an image. Anyway, we loaded this up in 'large', and scanning across left to right the camera recognised all the faces until it got two thirds of the way across! Quite interesting. It was pretty much a vertical line dividing what it defined as human and what must have been just slightly too abstract.
