BCaution for Viewing 3D Pictures

•To play back 3D pictures in 3D on a 3D-compatinle TV or monitor via HDMI connection, a 3D-compatible HDMI cable is required.

•Set HDMI (E91) in TV settings in the setup menu (A88) to Auto (default setting) or 1080i. If you select 480p or 720p, pictures cannot be played back in 3D and 3D playback (A70) cannot be selected.

•When viewing 3D pictures on a 3D-compatible TV or monitor for an extended period of time, you may experience discomfort such as eye strain or nausea. Carefully read the documentation included with your TV or monitor to ensure proper use.

CTaking 3D Pictures

•Moving subjects are not suited to 3D photography. We recommend shooting still subjects.

•Pictures have a less pronounced 3D feel as the distance between the camera and background is increased.

•Pictures may have a less pronounced 3D feel when the subject is dark or when the second picture is not aligned precisely.

•Be careful of camera shake when shooting with a high zoom ratio.

•Pictures taken under dim lighting may appear grainy with noise.

•The angle of view (i.e., the area visible in the frame) seen in the saved picture will be narrower than that seen in the monitor at the time of shooting.

•If the camera does not take the second picture and cancels the shooting even when you align the guide with the subject, try shooting with the shutter-release button or touch shutter.
