Re: Help! Taking a picture of your face with IOS5:
Thank you very much for this. I did get it to work yesterday although I have no idea how good the picture is grin! For anyone having trouble with this feature, in addition to the excellent post quoted below, turn on a light. If you get no announcements it is because there is not enough light. The flash doesn't save the day here because it needs a constant source of light to recognize your face in the first place before you actually take the picture.

Mine was set to With Descriptions and Voiceover would neve rsay anything so last night I changed it and it then told me I had a face when I pointed the camera at myself. I think this feature needs a bit of work, I had the phone about a foot away from my face and Voiceover at first said Large Face, face centered, then without me moving the phone as much as half an inch it immediately went on to say No face, then it said Small face and so on. I found it hard to get consistancy and often when it said One face, large face or One face, small face it would immediately afterwards say also No face. Maybe some others who have used this more often can chime in with their experience. One thing I am unsure about it what these 3 settings under Navigate Images actually do, i.e. how they differ from each other. There is Always, With Description or Never. At first I thought With Description would have to be selected for this face detection thing to work. I am also not sure what Cory means when he says it would allow the camera to be closer to you if you use the front camera. I would not recommend using the front camera, it is a 1 Megapixel camera and the back camera on the 4S is an 8 Megapixel and I can't see how it can be closer no matter which way around you hold it. It's not as if you have to reach around to tap the Take Picture button, just use the volume up key if you want to take a picture of yourself and here it doesn't really matter whether it is on the left side if the front camera is facing you or on the right side if you turn the phone around to use the better camera.

RE: Help! Taking a picture of your face with IOS5:
You Should probabally use the camera on the front of the phone when takeing a picture of yourself. It will allow the phone to be closer to you.

Re: Help! Taking a picture of your face with IOS5:
hello, I always hold the camera about an arm's-length from my face. Secondly you need to have enough light for the facial recognition to work. I move the phone around until it says large face center. I also use the Apple earbuds that came with the iPhone. The reason for this, is I use the Volume up control button on the headphones to activate the camera.
