Recording pictures (basic)
¬Suggestions/Tips ¬
•When pressing the shutter button halfway, the screen may become dark or bright for a moment; this is not a malfunction. This is caused by adjusting the aperture value.
•When you slow the shutter speed, the shutter may be kept closed after recording due to the signal conditioning. This is not a malfunction.
•We recommend setting the clock again before taking pictures. (P20)
•When the time for power save is set (P24), the camera is automatically turned off if you do not operate within the set time. When operating the camera again, press the shutter button or turn the camera off and on.
