You Think There is a Problem

Eyes appear red.

Set [Red-Eye Lamp] to [On]. This is effective if the subject looks right at the red-eye reduction lamp. Even better results can be obtained by increasing the lighting in indoor settings or approaching closer to the subject. The shutter will not close for approx. 1 second when the lamp lights (p. 23).

You can set the [Red-Eye Corr.] to [On] to automatically correct red-eye while shooting. You can also make corrections after the image is taken, using [Red-Eye Correction] (pp. 105, 122).

Image seen in the viewfinder and the recorded image are slightly different.

You can check the actual image size on the screen (p. 45). If you use Macro mode, the difference is even stronger. Use the screen to compose the image.

Recording images to the memory card takes a long time, or continuous shooting slows down.

Low-level formatting the memory card in the camera may solve the problem (p. 50).

Cannot set shooting functions or Func. menu settings

Depending on the shooting mode, available functions vary. Refer to the Functions Available in Each Shooting Mode section (p. 134).
