Cautions for <F>

When shooting flash photography, if the subject is too close to the camera, the picture may come out extremely bright (overexposure).

If you use flash when shooting dimly lit night scenes, or human subjects in situations where the subject and background are both near enough to be illuminated by the flash, the shots may not align correctly. This can result in a blurry photo.

Shooting with an external Speedlite

•When using a Speedlite with automatic flash coverage setting, the zoom position will be fixed to the wide end, regardless of the lens’ zoom position.

•When using a Speedlite with manual flash coverage switch, shoot with the flash head retracted to the wide (normal) position.

Cautions for <G>

Note that the image may not be rendered with a smooth gradation and may look irregular or have significant noise.

HDR Backlight Control may not be effective for excessively backlit scenes or extremely high-contrast scenes.

Cautions for <F> and <G>

Compared with other shooting modes, the shooting area will be smaller. 1+73or 1cannot be selected. With other shooting modes, if 1+73or 1is set, the picture will be recorded in 73.

If you shoot a moving subject, ghost-like images of the subject may result.

The image alignment may not function properly with repetitive patterns (lattice, stripes, etc.), flat or single-tone images, or greatly misaligned shots caused by camera shake.

Compared to normal shooting, recording the image to the card will take longer. During the processing of the images, “BUSY” will be displayed and you cannot take another picture until the processing is completed. If the Mode Dial is set to <F> or <G>, direct printing is not possible. Select other mode and perform direct printing.
