Hints for taking pictures

Muting the operation sounds

i The operation sounds that are generated, for example, when the [ ] button, MENU button or SET button is pressed, as well as the audio guidance when you switch the mode, can be muted (page 126).

Where is the image and audio data saved?

i All the image and sound data is recorded in the camera’s internal memory or on the card installed in the camera.

i When a card is installed in the camera, the data is recorded on the card. If no card is installed, the data is recorded in the camera’s internal memory.

Taking pictures in backlight conditions...

i When taking pictures with the light coming from behind the subject, due to the characteristics of the lens, light lines or ghost patterns (flare phenomenon) may appear in the captured image. In this situation, it is recommended that you avoid taking pictures with the subject lit from behind.

While the image data is being recorded...

i While the multi-indicator is flashing red, the image data is being written to the memory, during which time it is not possible to capture another image. Another image can be captured after the flashing red indicator turns off.

However, even when the multi-indicator is flashing red, depending on the camera’s internal memory remaining capacity, in some cases the next image can be captured about 2 seconds after shooting.
