Recording
Pictures are recorded continuously while moving the camera horizontally, and two pictures
selected automatically are combined to make a single 3D picture.
To view 3D pictures, a television that supports 3D is required. (This unit will play back in 2D)
Refer to P180 for details about the playback method.
Technique for 3D Photo Mode
Start the recording and then slide the camera horizontally
straight from left to right.
A guide is displayed while recording.
Move the camera approximately 10cm (0.33 feet) within
approximately 4s ec onds using the guide.
To avoid mistakes in 3D recording
Take a picture of a subject that is no t moving.
Take a picture in a well-lit place, such as outdoors, etc.
Fix the focus and exposure by pressing the shutter button
halfway, then press the shutter button fully and mov e the camera.
When you start recording with the subject slightly to the right of the center, the subject will be close
to the center in the final picture.
Note
You cannot record 3D pictures in vertical orientation.
The 3D pictures are saved in MPO format (3D).
Zoom position is fixed to Wide.
•The picture size is fixe d to 2M (16:9).
The ISO sensitivity is automatically adjusted. However, the ISO sensitivity is i ncreased to make the
shutter speed become high-speed.
Motion pictures cannot be recorded during 3D Photo Mode.
Recording may not be possible depending on the recording conditions for the following cas es. You
may not get a 3D effect or the picture may be warped even if it was possible to record.
When the subject is too dark/bright
When the brightness of the subject changes
When the subject is moving
Not enough contrast
