Things to Watch Out for When Taking Pictures

The available recording time may vary depending on shooting conditions and camera settings.

When either 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 to flash shot mode.

Shooting against the light :

Please do not take pictures into the sun. Taking a picture against the sun may make the picture dark. To take a picture against the light, please use the [Backlight] in the scene shooting mode (see page 36), fill-in flash (see page 28), spot metering (see page 30), or exposure compensation (see page 36).

Avoid obstructing the lens or the flash when you capture an image. Compose the image by using the LCD monitor.

In some of the following conditions the auto focus system may not perform as expected.

-When photographing a subject that has little contrast.

-If the subject is highly reflective or shiny.

-If the subject is moving at high speed.

-When there is strong reflected light, or when the background is very bright.

-When the subject matter has only horizontal lines or the subject is very narrow (such as a stick or flagpole).

-When the surroundings are dark.
