The recorded picture looks rough.

Noise appears on the picture.

Is the ISO sensitivity high or the shutter speed slow?

(ISO sensitivity is set to [AUTO] when the camera is shipped. Therefore, when taking pictures indoors etc. noise will appear.)

>Decrease the ISO sensitivity. (P86)

>Increase the setting for [NOISE RED.] in [FILM MODE] or lower the setting for each of the items other than [NOISE RED.]. (P88)

>Take pictures in bright places.

>Set the [LONG SHTR NR] to [ON]. (P123)

The brightness or the hue of the recorded picture is different from the actual scene.

If recording under fluorescent light, the brightness or the hue may change slightly when the shutter speed becomes fast. This occurs due to the characteristics of fluorescent light. It is not a malfunction.

Reddish horizontal streaks appear on the LCD monitor during recording.

This is characteristic of MOS sensors which serve as the camera’s pickup sensors. It appears when the subject has a bright part. Some unevenness may occur in the surrounding areas, but this is not a malfunction.

It is recorded in motion pictures but is not recorded on still pictures.

It is recommended that you take pictures while taking care not to expose the screen to sunlight or any other source of strong light.

Motion picture recording stops in the middle.

It is recommended to use a card with SD Speed Class¢ with “Class 6” or higher when recording motion pictures.

¢SD speed class is the speed standard regarding continuous writing.

Depending on the type of the card, recording may stop in the middle.

>When you set the picture quality to [ ], [ ] or [ ], we recommend using a high-speed card with “10MB/s” or greater displayed on the package.

>In the event that it stops even after using a “10MB/s” card or higher, the data writing speed has deteriorated so it is recommended to make a backup and then format (P38).

You cannot compensate the exposure.

Are you in Exposure Compensation operation?

>Press the front dial to switch to Exposure Compensation operation. (P71)

Subject cannot be locked. (AF tracking not possible)

Set the AF area to the distinctive color of the subject if there is a part that is different from the surrounding color. (P78)
