I can't say I've ever heard of this before, but if you have, speak up. A PlayStation 3 owner found something very interesting in his slideshow mode: The PS3 knows where the faces are. Creepy? Kinda. But imagine the possibilities if such a capability exists.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
Try doing a slideshow with pictures of inanimate objects. I'm willing to bet that it zooms in on whatever the largest object in the picture is.
On a side note. At the Circuit City where I work, the store got to vote for a new console for the break room. The votes ended thusly. PS3 6 votes. Xbox 360 17 votes. Wii 18 votes.
I was so mad. I already have a wii, and I was hoping to have Gears of War waiting for me on my lunch break. >:(
And yes as above the newer point and shoot digital cameras like the Ixus 800IS & 900TI (for us euro's) have auto focus face detection.
Yes, i too work in retail :(
