● Vignetting appears in previews immediately after your shots,
before the nal, saved images are displayed.
● You can change how long images are displayed after shots
(
=
47).
Movies
● Keep your ngers away from the microphone (1) while recording
movies. Blocking the microphone may prevent audio from being
recorded or may cause the recording to sound mufed.
● Avoid touching camera controls other than the movie button and
touch-screen panel when recording movies, because sounds
made by the camera will be recorded. To adjust settings or
perform other operations during recording, use the touch-screen
panel if possible.
● Mechanical sounds from the lens and camera are also recorded.
● Once movie recording with a Dynamic IS-compatible lens begins
(
=
80), the display area narrows and subjects are enlarged to
allow for correction of signicant camera shake. To shoot subjects
at the same size shown before shooting, adjust the image
stabilization setting (
=
79).
Digest Movie Playback
Display a still image shot in [ ] mode to play the digest movie created
on the same day, or specify the date of the digest movie to play (
=
94).
Still Images/Movies
● If the camera makes no operating sounds, it may have been
turned on while holding down the [
] button. To activate
sounds, press the [
] button, choose [Beep] on the [ 3]
tab, and then press the [
][ ] buttons to choose [On].
Still Images
● If the camera cannot focus on subjects when you press the
shutter button halfway, an orange AF frame is displayed with [
],
and no picture is taken if you press the shutter button all the way
down.
● Focusing may take longer or be incorrect when no people or other
subjects are detected, when subjects are dark or lack contrast, or
in very bright conditions.
● A blinking [ ] icon warns that images are more likely to be
blurred by camera shake. In this case, mount the camera on a
tripod or take other measures to keep it still.
● If your shots are dark despite the ash ring, move closer to the
subject. For details on the ash range, see “Approximate Built-in
Flash Range” (
=
190).
● To reduce red-eye and to assist in focusing, the lamp may be lit
when shooting in low-light conditions.
● Vignetting or dark image areas may occur with some lenses if the
ash res.
● A blinking [ ] icon displayed when you attempt to shoot
indicates that shooting is not possible until the ash has nished
recharging. Shooting can resume as soon as the ash is ready,
so either press the shutter button all the way down and wait, or
release it and press it again.
● Although you can shoot again before the shooting screen
is displayed, your previous shot may determine the focus,
brightness, and colors used.
