Basic

Subjects and recording conditions which are difficult to focus

Fast-moving subjects, extremely bright subjects or subjects without contrast

When the recordable range display has appeared in red.

When recording subjects through windows or near shiny objects

When it is dark or when jitter occurs

When the camera is too close to the subject or when taking a picture of both distant and near subjects

Preventing jitter (camera shake)

When the jitter alert [ ] appears, use [STABILIZER] (P90), a tripod or the self-timer (P52).

Shutter speed will be slower particularly in the following cases. Keep the camera still from the moment the shutter button is pressed until the picture appears on the screen. We recommend using a tripod.

Slow sync./Red-eye reduction

[NIGHT PORTRAIT] and [NIGHT SCENERY] in the advanced scene mode (P63)

In [PARTY], [CANDLE LIGHT], [STARRY SKY] or [FIREWORKS] in scene mode (P66)

When the shutter speed is slowed in [MIN. SHTR SPEED]

Direction detection function

Pictures recorded with the camera held vertically are played back vertically (rotated). (Only when [ROTATE DISP.] (P106) is set to [ON])

Pictures may not be displayed vertically if they were taken with the camera aimed up or down.

Pictures cannot be displayed vertically when recording motion pictures or creating flip animations.

Enlarge the focus point (display focus point)

This unit will remember the focus point during the recording, and it can be enlarged with that point as a center.

Press [AF#/FOCUS] during image playback.

Focus point may not be the center of enlargement when it is at the edge of the image.

Refer to Using the Playback Zoom(P41) for operation during zooming.

It will return to the original enlargement if [AF#/FOCUS] is pressed again.

Following pictures cannot be enlarged because there is no focus point:

Picture that was taken without focusing

Picture that was taken with manual focus

Picture that was taken with a different camera
