Folder File Capacity

Each folder usually contains up to 100 images. However, since images shot in Continuous mode and Stitch Assist mode are always saved into the same folder, a folder may contain more than 100 images. The number of images may also exceed 100 if a folder contains images copied from a computer or images shot with other cameras.

Please note, however, that the images in folders containing 2001 or more images cannot be played back in this camera.

How to Adjust the Exposure (p. 78)

This camera automatically adjusts the exposure to shoot images with the optimal brightness. However, recorded images may sometimes be brighter or darker than the actual image depending on the shooting conditions. If this happens, adjust the exposure compensation manually (p. 78).

Underexposure

The whole recorded image is dark, which makes white elements of the image appear gray. Shooting bright subjects or in backlit conditions may cause

the image to be underexposed. Adjust the exposure compensation towards the + end.
