About the REC Mode Monitor Screen

The image shown on the monitor screen in the REC mode is a simplified image for composing purposes. The actual image is recorded in accordance with the image quality setting currently selected on your camera. The image saved on the memory card has much better resolution and detail than the REC mode monitor screen image.

Certain levels of subject brightness can cause the re- sponse of the REC mode monitor screen to slow down, which causes some static noise in the monitor screen image.

Recording Precautions

Never open the battery cover, disconnect the AC adaptor from the camera, or unplug the adaptor from the wall socket while the operation lamp is flashing green. Doing so will not only make storage of the current image impossible, it can also corrupt other image data already stored on the camera’s built-in flash memory or on a memory card.

Never remove batteries, disconnect the AC adaptor, or re- move the memory card while an image is being saved to built-in flash memory or to a 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.
