3 seconds after initiating the quick start operation, motion pictures taken

3 seconds before pressing the recording start/stop button cannot be recorded.

≥When in normal recording mode, the thumbnail displays for recorded scenes will be the initial images from recorded scenes, while when in long recording mode, the thumbnail displays for recorded scenes will be images present when the recording start/stop button was pressed.

≥The date indication for scenes recorded using the PRE-REC function will be the date when the start/stop button is pressed. Therefore, the date indication when displaying thumbnails or during playback may be different from the date when the recording actually started.

Intelligent contrast control:

≥If there are extremely dark or bright parts or the brightness is insufficient, the effect may not be clear.

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.

≥Bright dots that are usually invisible may be seen, but this is not a malfunction.

≥Using a tripod is recommended.

≥In darker areas, auto focus may focus a bit slower. This is normal.
