The recent Fujis have “Face Finder” mode, the kind of thing I’ve sort
of sneered at, and I bet lots of PDMLers have too. Except for I
tried it at a party in low light wth a 35mm F1.4 prime jammed wide
open and hey, it works! If you camera has one of these, give it a
try.

Gads, one would hope the camera can find a face from that range.
With the K5, I ended up using it's face finder in Live View mode to
secure focus when shooting in the studio. The AF was that bad.
