Subject and recording conditions which are difficult to focus in
• Fast-moving subjects, extremely bright subjects or subjects without contrast
• When the recordable range display has appeared in red
• When recording subjects through windows or near shiny objects
• When it is dark or when jitter occurs
• When the camera is too close to the subject or when taking a picture of both distant and near
subjects
When the jitter alert [
] appears, use [STABILIZER]
(P87)
, a tripod or the self-timer
(P54)

• Shutter speed will be slower particularly in the following cases. Keep the camera still from the
moment the shutter button is pressed until the picture appears on the screen. We recommend
using a tripod.
