• Is your finger covering up the speaker? (P14)
• If the camera is moved too slowly, the camera has assumed that camera motion was stopped
and will end the still picture recording.
• If there is a great deal of shaking towards the recording direction while moving the camera,
recording will end.
• You may not be able to record for a short while after turning this unit on when using a large
capacity card.
• Use a card with SD Speed Class with “Class 4” or higher when recording motion pictures.
• When a card with a slow data writing speed is used, motion picture recording may stop midway.
> If a card on which recording and deleting have been repeated many times or a card that
has been formatted on a PC or other equipment is being used, we recommend that you
make a backup of the data and format (P29) the card on the unit.
• When recording a motion picture, the screen may go dark after a certain period to reduce
battery consumption, but this will not affect the recorded motion picture.
• Depending on the environment at the time of motion picture recording, the screen may be
blacked out momentarily or the unit may record noise due to static electricity or powerful
electromagnetic waves (radio towers, high voltage power lines, etc.).
• This is characteristic of MOS sensors which serve as the camera’s pickup sensors.
This is not a malfunction.
When a subject moves across the image very fast, the subject may appear slightly distorted.
• When noticeable flicker or striping is seen under lighting such as a fluorescent or LED lighting
fixture, you can reduce the flicker or striping by setting up [Flkr Decrease] (P224) and fixing the
shutter speed. It is possible to select a shutter speed from [1/50], [1/60], [1/100], or [1/120].
You can set the shutter speed manually in the Creative Video Mode. (P118)
Operation sound is small.
Recording by Panorama Shot Mode is ended before finishing.
