OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS

IMPORTANT!

• The effectiveness of the lens hood depends on the

angle of the light and other conditions.

• Using the flash with the lens hood attached can

cause vignetting (darkening of the corners of the
image). Remove the lens hood before using the
flash.

• Carefully read the user documentation that comes

with filters for information about how to use them
properly.

• Keep the following points in mind when purchasing a

filter.
— Use of a filter can cause blackening around the

edges of images.

— Use of a filter may interfere with proper operation

of Auto Focus and flash.

— Filters may not deliver the same results as those

obtained with a film camera.

• Do not use multiple filters.
• Use of a commercially available lens hood may

cause blackening around the edges of images.

Installing the Lens Hood and a Lens Filter

Your camera comes with a lens hood that you can install
on the lens when you need it. Use of the lens hood shuts
out unwanted light when shooting in very strong sunlight or
against backlighting, which helps to reduce the chance of
ghosting and flaring.
You can also attach commercially available 43mm filters to
the lens of the camera.
