Shooting Indoors under Fluorescent Lighting
•Minute flickering of fluorescent lighting can affect the brightness or color of an image.
Other Precautions
•The slower the shutter speed, the greater the possibility that noticeable noise will be generated in an image. Because of this, the camera automatically performs a noise reduction at slow shutter speeds. The noise reduction process causes it to take longer to record images at lower shutter speeds. The shutter speeds for which noise reduction is performed depend on the camera setup and shooting conditions.
•A noise reduction process is performed when ISO sensitivity is set to a high value. This can cause the camera to take relatively longer to be ready to shoot again after you press the shutter button. Do not perform any operation while the image recording operation is in progress.
•Due to the characteristics of the imaging element used by the camera, very fast moving objects in an image may appear distorted.
.Auto Focus Restrictions
•Any of the following can make proper focus impossible.
–Solid color wall or other very low contrast subject
–Strongly back lit subject
–Very shiny subject
–Blinds or other subject with a repeating horizontal pattern
–Multiple subjects at varying distances from the camera
–Subject in a dark location
–Camera movement while shooting
–
–Subjects outside the focus range of the camera
•If you cannot focus properly, try using focus lock (page 67).
