Recording
[Clear Night Portrait]
Fill flash and a longer exposure capture better portraits
against the nightscape.
Note
•
Open the flash. (You can set to [ ].)
• We recommend using a tripod and the Self-timer for taking
pictures.
• When [Clear Night Portrait] is selected, keep the subject still for
about 1 second after taking the picture.
• The shutter may remain closed after taking the picture. This is
due to signal processing and is not a malfunction.
• Noise may become visible when you take pictures in dark
places.
[Soft Image of a Flower]
The soft focus creates a diffused image.
Note
•
We recommend using a tripod and the self-timer.
• For close-up recording, we recommend that you close the flash
and avoid using it.
• Display of the recording screen will be delayed more than usual
and the screen will look as if frames are dropping.
• The focus range is different depending on lens used. Refer to
“About the focus distance reference mark” on P98 for the focus
range.
• When a subject is close to the camera, the effective focus range
is significantly narrowed. Therefore, if the distance between the
camera and the subject is changed after focusing on the
subject, it may become difficult to focus on it again.
• Close-up regions are prioritized when taking pictures, and so
time is required to focus if you take a picture of a distant subject.
• When you take pictures at close range, the resolution of the
periphery of the picture may decrease slightly. This is not a
malfunction.
• If the lens becomes dirty with fingerprints or dust, the lens may
not be able to focus on the subject correctly.
