Shooting
Strange display on the screen under low light.
Screen brightness is automatically increased when you are shooting under low
light, so that it is easier to check how shots are composed. However, on-screen
image brightness may not match the brightness of your shots. Note that any on-
screen image distortion or jerky subject motion will not affect recorded images.
Strange display on the screen when shooting.
Note that the following display problems are not recorded in still images but are
recorded in movies.
- The screen may icker and horizontal banding may appear under uorescent
or LED lighting.
Focusing is not possible if you are closer to the subject than the minimum
focusing distance of the lens. To determine the minimum focusing distance, check
the lens. The lens minimum focusing distance is measured from the
(focal
plane) mark on the top of the camera to the subject.
Continuous shooting suddenly stops.
Continuous shooting stops automatically to protect the camera after about 1,000
shots are taken at one time. Release the shutter button a moment before you
resume shooting.
Movie recording or playback suddenly stops.
