Thanks daredevil for clarifying the issue. I don't have a D800, just sharing my experiences when playing around with my friends' cameras, I got the face detect through OVF to work but am not 100% sure of the required settings.

I have never heard of this before but it sounds like good advice. Time to get more battery holders.
