Depending on the Shooting mode, when shooting in a high ISO speed the image may
appear rough or grainy (pp. 65, 66).
Eyes appear red (p. 104).
•
Set the [Red-Eye Lamp] to [On] (p. 173). When shooting with the flash, the lamp (on the
front of the camera) lights (p. 42), and for approximately 1 second while the camera is
reducing red-eye, it is not possible to shoot. It is more effective if the subject is looking
directly at the lamp. Even better results can be obtained by increasing the lighting in
indoor settings or approaching closer to the subject.
•
Correct images with red-eye correction (p. 150).
Recording images to the memory card takes a long time, or continuous
shooting slows down.
•
Perform a low-level format of the memory card in the camera (p. 167).

•
The items in which settings can be made differ depending on the shooting mode. Refer
to “Functions Available in Each Shooting Mode” and “Shooting Menu” (pp. 190 – 197).
