Recording images (basic)

• If you press the shutter button fully at once, the shutter jiggle may occur or the focus may
not be adjusted properly.
• Even when the focus indication is displayed and the focus is properly adjusted, it will be
cancelled if you release the shutter button.
Press the button halfway again.
• When power saving time is set, if you do not operate the camera for a while, it is
automatically turned off at the set time. To operate the camera again, press the shutter
button or turn the power switch first to [OFF] and then to [ON]. (P80)
• The brightness of the LCD monitor/Viewfinder may differ from that of the recorded pictures.
In particular, when taking pictures in dark places with a long time exposure, darkness
appears on the LCD monitor/Viewfinder, but the recorded pictures are bright.
• If the exposure is not properly set, the color of the aperture value and the shutter speed on
the LCD monitor/Viewfinder becomes red.
• In the following cases, the focus may not be adjusted properly.
1 Recording a scene including subjects both near and far
2 Recording a scene through the dirty glass
3 Recording surrounding a shining scene
4 Recording in a dark place
5 Recording moving subject
6 Recording a subject with a little contrast
7 Recording with shutter jiggle
• We recommend that you set the clock setting again before taking pictures.
• When the brightness of the LCD monitor/Viewfinder changes such as while zooming or
panning, you may hear a click sound from the lens or the image on the LCD monitor/
Viewfinder may change suddenly; this is not a malfunction. The sound is caused by the
camera automatically adjusting the aperture value.
About the shutter jiggle
• Be careful to prevent the shutter jiggle when you press the shutter button.
• When the shutter jiggle can easily occur, the shutter jiggle alert
1 appears.
• We recommend you to use a tripod when the shutter jiggle alert appears.
