Recording images (basic)

• If the shutter button is pressed all the way, at once, the cam era may not focus
properly. An alternative to first pressing halfway is to enable Continuous AF.
• Even when the focus indication is displayed and the focus is properly adjusted, it
will be cancelled if you release the shutter button.
Press the button halfway again.
• When power saving time is set, if you do not operate the c amera for a while, it is
automatically turned off at the set time. To operate the camera again, press the
shutter button or turn the power switch first to [OFF] and then to [ON]. (P80)
• The brightness of the LCD monitor/Viewfinder may differ from that of the recorded
pictures. In particular, when taking pictures in dark places with a long time
exposure, darkness appears on the LCD monitor/Viewfinder, but the recorded
pictures are bright.
• If the exposure is not properly set, the color of the aperture value and the shutter
speed on the LCD monitor/Viewfinder becomes red.
• In the following cases, the focus may not be adjusted properly.
1 Recording a scene including subjects both near and far
2 Recording a scene through a dirty pane of glass
3 Recording an illuminated subject
4 Recording in darkness
5 Recording a moving subject
6 Recording a subject with little contrast
7 Recording with shutter jiggle
• We recommend that you set the clock setting again before taking pictures.
• When the brightness of the LCD monitor/Viewfinder changes such as while
zooming or panning, you may hear a click sound from the lens or the image on the
LCD monitor/Viewfinder may change suddenly; this is not a malfunction. The
sound is caused by the camera automatically adjusting the aperture value.
About shutter jiggle• To prevent shutter jiggle, be careful when you press the shutter button.
• When the shutter jiggle alert 1 appears, we recommend you use a tripod.
