Fade:
The thumbnails of scenes recorded using fade
in become black (or white).
Intelligent contrast control:
If there are extremely dark or bright parts or the
brightness is insufficient, the effect may not be
clear.
Help mode:
When the help mode is used, functions cannot
be set.
When the help mode is used, motion pictures
and still pictures cannot be recorded.
Soft skin mode:
If the background or anything else in the scene
has colours similar to the skin colour, they will
also be smoothed.
If the brightness is insufficient, the effect may
not be clear.
If you record a person in the distance, the face
may not be recorded clearly. In this case,
cancel soft skin mode or zoom in on the face
(close-up) to record.
Colour night view:
Recorded scene is seen as if frames were
missed.
If set in a bright place, the screen may become
washed out for a while.
Colour night view function makes dark scenes
that are usually invisible can be recorded in
bright colours. For this reason, bright dots that
are usually invisible may be seen, but this is
not a malfunction.
Attach this unit to a tripod, and you can record
images free from vibration.
In darker areas, auto focus may focus a bit
slower. This is normal. If there is difficulty
focusing with auto focus, manually adjust the
focus.
Low light:
The shutter speed is 1/25 or more.
Extremely dark scenes may not be able to be
recorded finely.
ØSelf-timer:
The self-timer standby mode is cancelled when
you press the recording start/stop button to
start motion picture recording.
Even if you press the recording start/stop
button while the self-timer is counting down,
motion picture recording is not possible.
Setting the self-timer to [Ø2] is a good way to
prevent image shake when the button is
pressed while using a tripod etc.
Tele m acr o:
The tele macro function is cancelled when the
zoom magnification becomes lower than 10k.
If a sharper focus cannot be achieved, adjust
the focus manually. (l56)
