i When taking pictures with the light coming from behind the subject, due to the characteristics of the lens, ghost patterns (flare phenomenon) may appear in the captured image. In this situation, it is recommended that you avoid taking pictures with the subject lit from behind.

While the image files are being recorded...

i While the multi-indicator is flashing red, the image files are being written to the memory, during which time it is not possible to capture another image. Another image can be captured after the flashing red indicator turns off.

However, even when the multi-indicator is flashing red, depending on the camera’s internal memory remaining capacity, in some cases the next image can be captured about 2 seconds after shooting.
