BASIC IMAGE RECORDING

IMPORTANT!

In any of the following cases, the message “One mo- ment please...” appears on the display after you record each image as it is saved to the memory card.

When you are recording TIFF (uncompressed) im- ages (page E-95)

When you are recording a movie or panorama (pages E-91, 93)

When you are recording using certain Best Shot scene setups (page E-76)

When the low battery indicator is on the dis- play while you are using a CompactFlash card (page E-33)

When the low battery indicator is on the dis- play while you are using an IBM Microdrive (page E-33).

Recording images in the Full Auto Mode causes a number of camera settings to be made automatically in accordance with shooting conditions. See “Full Auto Mode Settings” on page E-154 for more information.

Recording Precautions

Never remove the camera’s batteries, disconnect the AC adaptor, or remove the memory card from the camera while it is saving images to its memory card. Doing so not only causes a loss of the image being saved, it can also corrupt images already stored on the memory card.

Fluorescent lighting actually flickers at a frequency that cannot be detected by the human eye. When using the camera indoors under such lighting, you may experience some brightness or color problems with recorded images.

Focusing

The Full Auto Mode uses Multi-area AF, which measures three distances and automatically focuses on the subject nearest to the camera. Note that the focusing range is ap- proximately 30 cm to .

IMPORTANT!

You cannot select a different focusing method when using the Full Auto Mode (Page E-61).
