Tips for taking good pictures

Hold the camera gently with both hands, keep your arms still at your side and stand with your feet slightly apart.

Do not cover the flash, the AF assist lamp A or the microphone B (P14) with your fingers or other objects.

Be careful not to move the camera when you press the shutter button.

When taking pictures, make sure your footing is stable and there is no danger of colliding with another person, an object etc.

Detects orientation of camera (Direction Detection Function)

This function detects the vertical orientation when you record with the camera vertically orientated. When you play back the recording, the recording is automatically displayed in vertical orientation. (Only available when [Rotate Disp.] (P238) is set to [ON].)

When recording with this unit, Direction Detection can be performed even if you are using a lens that is not compatible with the Direction Detection Function.

When the camera is held vertically and tilted significantly up or down to record, the Direction Detection Function may not work correctly.

Motion pictures taken with the camera held vertically are not displayed vertically.

You cannot record 3D pictures in vertical orientation.
