Note

How the Exposure Compensation is switched can be changed by [EXPO. SETTINGS] (P140) in the [CUSTOM] menu.

If the exposure is not adequate when the shutter button is pressed halfway, the aperture value and shutter speed turn red and blink.

Program Shift is canceled and the camera returns to normal Program AE Mode if more than 10 seconds pass after Program Shift is activated. However, the Program Shift setting is memorized.

Depending on the brightness of the subject, Program Shift may not be activated.

Program Shift is not possible when the [SENSITIVITY] is set to [ ].

[REC] Mode:

Taking Pictures with the Zoom

Using the Optical Zoom/using the Extended Optical Zoom (EZ)/

using the Digital 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 closer use (Tele)

Rotate the zoom ring towards Tele. (P13)

To make subjects appear further away use (Wide)

Rotate the zoom ring towards Wide. (P13)

To enlarge further, set the [EX. OPT. ZOOM] to [ON] or the [DIGITAL ZOOM] to [2k] or [4k] in the [REC] Mode menu or the [MOTION PICTURE] Mode menu. Then you can take larger photos.

When the [EX. OPT. ZOOM] (max. 2k) is used in still picture recording, set each image Aspect Ratio (X/Y/W/ ) to a picture size other than [L].
