The F value and shutter speed flash when you press and hold the shutter
button halfway down.

The screen is too dark or too bright.
• Adjust the brightness of the backlight (page 22).
The image is too dark.

(page 49) or adjust the exposure (page 51).
The image is too bright.
• Adjust the exposure (page 51).
The image colors are not correct.
• Set [Color Mode] to [Normal] (page 61).
Vertical streaks appear when you are shooting a very bright subject.
• The smear phenomenon is occurring and white, black, red, purple, or other streaks appear on
the image. This phenomenon is not a malfunction.
Noise appears in the image when you view the screen in a dark place.
• The camera is attempting to increase the visibility of the screen by temporarily brightening
the image under conditions of low illumination. There is no effect on the recorded image.
The eyes of the subject come out red.
• Set [Red Eye Reduction] to [Auto] or [On] (page 60).
• Shoot the subject at a distance closer than the flash range using the flash.
• Light the room and shoot the subject.
