P: Zoom to face

Problem:

I have an almost full keybord workflow for culling photos. Where I slow down is when I have to check critical focus on my subjects face, i have to use my mouse and hunt around once zoomed in, or click and select on a face.

Solution:

I would love to leverage the face detection which is already running, and do a zoom view via a keyboard shortcut where I can see all my subjects faces at a specified zoom level.  either as different boxes since there are seperate subjects or just zoom into the single face that is anywhere in the frame. I guess it would be "Zoom to face"

 

Alternately, show focus peaking with a keyboard shortcut, to see what is in critical focus.

I was just about to suggest this feature that would be amazing if implemented - the ability to zoom directly to the subject's face. Culling can be very time-consuming, so this feature would be a time-saver. However, it may prove difficult in the case of group photos or multiple people in the picture. It would be unclear which face to zoom in to. I hope Adobe can find a solution to this soon. Overall, this new feature would be a great help and save plenty of time!

I would love to see this feature implemented as it would be really useful to my workflow too. Though I imagine it might not be the fastest when implementing as the software would have to identify faces. Perhaps an alternative solution is to use the focus point data that many modern cameras implement into the file data that allows cameras to zoom into the focus point when reviewing images.
