∫Subjects and recording conditions which are difficult to focus
•Fast-moving subjects, extremely bright subjects or subjects without contrast
•When the recordable range display has appeared in red.
•When recording subjects through windows or near shiny objects
•When it is dark or when jitter occurs
•When the camera is too close to the subject or when taking a picture of both distant and near
subjects
When the jitter alert [ ] appears, use [STABILIZER] (P65), a tripod or the self-timer (P42).
•Shutter speed will be slower particularly in the following cases. Keep the camera still from the
moment the shutter button is pressed until the picture appears on the screen. We recommend
using a tripod.

Taking Pictures with the Zoom
You can zoom-in to make people and objects appear closer or zoom-out to record landscapes in
wide angle. To make subjects appear even closer [maximum of 7.1k], do not set the picture size
to the highest setting for each aspect ratio (X/Y/W).
Even higher levels of magnification are possible when [DIGITAL ZOOM] is set to [ON] in [REC]
menu.

When the subject is not in focus (such as when it is not in the center of

the composition of the picture you want to take)
