Starting the recording mode

INFORMATION

When the Flash Off or Slow synchro mode is selected in a low lighting condition, the camera shake warning indicator () may appear on the LCD monitor. In this case, use a tripod, support the camera on a solid surface or change the flash mode to flash shot mode.

Backlight compensated shots : When taking an outdoor shot, avoid facing the sun, as the image may be dark because of the strong backlight. In backlight conditions, please use Fill-in flash(p.28), Spot metering(p.37) or Exposure compensation(p.30).

Avoid obstructing the lens or the flash when you capture an image.

As there can be some differences between what is seen through the Viewfinder and the resulting image when taken at a range closer than 1.5m, it is recommended that you use the LCD monitor to compose these shots.

Using the LCD monitor extensively will drain the batteries.

We recommend turning off the LCD monitor and using the optical viewfinder as often as possible in order to extend battery life.

Under certain conditions the focus system may not perform as expected.

-In Macro focus mode, if the distance from a subject is closer than 0.19m or farther than 0.21m.

Keep the distance between 0.19m~0.21m in Macro focus mode.

-In Normal focus mode, if the distance from a subject is closer than 1.0m. Keep the distance between 1.0m ~ Infinity in Normal focus mode.
