How did I get along without face recognition all these years? I'm waiting for tree recognition so I can take some landscape photos, and maybe water recognition for those sea side shots. :)

My wifes SD850IS has face recognition and its actually quite neat. I'm not sure how much it improves the shots but its a cool little gimmick :)

Your way behind the times, the lastest trick is smile recognition.

Good ole Sony and their smile shutter, somehow manages to take the picture at exactly the wrong time every single time.

Whereas face detection on compacts, paticularly for people just wanting to point and shoot, is pretty useful.

Geez, I didn't know it was so hard to detect a face.

Its harder than you might think.
It takes the average human several months to learn what a face is, and several more to start telling different faces from each other.

Its also possible to suffer brain damage that will stop you from being able to recognise someones face, even if they are standing right in front of you.
