the image to fit the screen without distortion.

 

 

 

 

appears. When using this mode, refer to your wide-screen TV's

 

 

instruction manual. During playback/recording on 4:3 TVs/LCD

 

 

monitor/viewfinder, the image is elongated vertically.

 

 

 

 

CINEMA

playback on wide-screen TVs, the black bands at the top and bottom

 

 

of the screen are cut and the screen ratio becomes 16:9. When using

 

 

this mode, refer to your wide-screen TV's instruction manual. During

 

 

playback/recording on 4:3 TVs/LCD monitor/viewfinder, black bands

 

 

are inserted at the top and bottom of the screen and the image

 

 

appears like a letterboxed 16:9 movie.

will reset to 16X since digital zoom will be disengaged.

This is automatically activated during Full Auto mode. The overall

 

 

appearance is jagged, but the image is bright.

 

AUTO A

The shutter speed is automatically adjusted (1/25 — 1/200 sec.).

 

 

Shooting a subject in low or poor lighting at 1/25 sec. shutter speed

 

 

provides a brighter image than in the AGC mode, but the subject's

 

 

movements are not smooth or natural. When set to this mode, “ A

adjustment.

ON

on the zoom magnification. Unless there is a distance more than 1m

 

to the subject, the lens is out of focus at the maximum telephoto

 

 

 

 

setting. When set to “ON”, you can shoot a subject as large as

 

 

possible at a distance of approx. 60 cm.

 

 

•Depending on the zoom position, the lens may go out of focus.
