Notes:

¥Recording under insufficient lighting may result in blurred images. It is recommended that you use a tripod to record insufficiently illuminated subjects.

¥Recording under the light of a fluorescent, mercury, or sodium lamp may cause flickering in the image and, depending on the timing of the shot, may result in changes to colour hue in the image.

¥Set the BEEP menu item to ÒOFFÓ to turn off the focus locking sound.

¥Do not turn the power off or remove the card while the S indicator is flashing in step 7.
