Direction Detection Function ([ROTATE DISP.])
Pictures recorded with the camera held vertically are played back vertically (rotated). (Only
when [ROTATE DISP.]

is set to [ON])
• When the camera is held vertically and tilted up and down to record pictures, the Direction
Detection function may not work correctly.
• Motion pictures taken with the camera held vertically are not displayed vertically.
• You cannot record 3D pictures in vertical orientation.
When the camera shake alert [
] appears, use [STABILIZER]
(P125)
, a tripod, the
Self-Timer
(P75)
.
• The shutter speed will be slower particularly in the following cases. Keep the camera still from
the moment the shutter release button is pressed until the picture appears on the monitor/
viewfinder. We recommend using a tripod.

• Hold the camera as still as possible when you release
the shutter, i.e. when you press the shutter release
button.
• When taking pictures, make sure your footing is
stable and there is no danger of colliding with another
person, an object etc.
• Do not hold the lens barrel as you take pictures.
There is a risk that your fingers may be pinched as
the lens retracts.
