Approx. 70 cm (2.3 ft.) to infinity

●! Use Macro mode for subjects closer than 70 cm (2.3 ft.) (➡P.36).

●! When [CARD ERROR], [CARD NOT INITIALIZED] or [NOT COPIED. MEMORY FULL] appears, see P.104.

2

Brace your elbows against your sides and hold the

camera with both hands. Position your right thumb

 

 

so that it is handy for using the zoom.

●! Moving the camera while shooting gives a blurred picture (camera shake). Use a tripod to prevent camera shake, particularly for shots in the dark when the selected flash mode is Suppressed flash.

●! There may be some uneven brightness at the lower edge of the LCD monitor. This is normal and does not affect the photographed image.

3

Hold the camera so that your fingers or the strap do

not cover the lens and flash. If the lens or flash is

 

 

obscured by your fingers or the strap, subjects may

 

be out of focus or the brightness (exposure) of your

 

shot may be incorrect.

●! Check that the lens is clean. If it is dirty, clean the lens as informed on P.100.

●! If the flash is used in dusty conditions or when it is snowing, white dots may appear in the image due to flash reflecting off the dust particles or snowflakes. Use Suppressed flash mode (➡P.38) to fix the problem.
