Striping or flicker may appear under lighting such as fluorescent lighting and LED lighting fixture.

•This is characteristic of MOS sensors which serve as the camera’s pickup sensors.

This is not a malfunction.

•When you see noticeable flicker or striping while recording a motion picture, you can reduce the flicker or striping by setting up [Flkr Decrease] (P201) and fixing the shutter speed. It is possible to select a shutter speed from [1/50], [1/60], [1/100], or [1/120].

You can set the shutter speed manually in the Creative Video Mode. (P198)

•When recording under fluorescent or LED lighting fixture, etc., increasing the shutter speed may introduce slight changes to brightness and color. These are a result of the characteristics of the light source and do not indicate a malfunction.

•When recording subjects in extremely bright locations or recording under fluorescent lighting, LED lighting fixture, mercury lamp, sodium lighting, etc., the colors and screen brightness may change or horizontal striping may appear on the screen.
