If recording under fluorescent light, the brightness or the hue may change slightly when the
shutter speed becomes fast. This occurs due to the characteristics of fluorescent light. It is not
a malfunction.
Colour or brightness of the screen may change or horizontal streaks may appear on the screen
when the picture is taken under extremely bright light, or under fluorescent lamps, mercury
lamps, or sodium lamps etc.
This is characteristic of MOS sensors which serve as the camera’s pickup sensors. It appears
when the subject has a bright part. Some unevenness may occur in the surrounding areas, but
this is not a malfunction.
It is recorded in motion pictures but is not recorded on still pictures.
It is recommended that you take pictures while taking care not to expose the screen to sunlight
or any other source of strong light.
This could be an inactive pixel. Perform the [PIXEL REFRESH] (P147) in the [CUSTOM] menu.
