Recording (continued)
Recorded pictures are blurred. Optical Image Stabilizer ineffective.
●
Shutter speed is slower in dark locations and Optical Image Stabilizer is less effective.
→
Hold camera firmly with both hands, keeping arms close to body.
→
Set [DIGITAL ZOOM] to [OFF] and [SENSITIVITY] to [
]. (
→
30, 54)
Recorded pictures appear coarse, or there is interference.
●
ISO Sensitivity is high, or shutter speed is low.
(Default [SENSITIVITY] setting is [
] – interference may appear with indoor pictures.)
→
Lower [SENSITIVITY] (
→
54).
→
Set [COLOR MODE] to [NATURAL] (
→
58).
→
Take pictures in brighter locations.
●
Camera set to [HIGH SENS.] or [HI-SPEED BURST] Scene Modes.
(Picture becomes slightly coarser in response to high sensitivity)
Pictures appear dark or have poor colouring.
●
Colours may appear unnatural due to the effects of light source.
→
Use [WHITE BALANCE] to adjust the colouring. (
→
55)
Brightness or colouring of recorded picture different from real life.
●
Taking pictures under fluorescent lighting may require a faster shutter speed and result in slightly
changed brightness or colouring, but this is not a fault.
Red banding may appear on the LCD monitor or part or the entire
screen may have a reddish tint, when recording or pressing the shutter
button halfway.
●
This is a characteristic of CCD and may appear if subject contains brighter
areas. Some blurring may occur around these areas, but this is not a fault. This
will be recorded in motion pictures, but not in still pictures.
●
We recommend keeping the screen away from strong light sources such as
sunlight when taking pictures.
Motion picture recording stops midway.
●
With some cards, access display may appear briefly after recording, and recording may end midway.
●
When recording motion picture, use a card rated with an SD speed class
∗
of ‘Class 6’ or higher.
∗
SD speed class refers to a specification for sustained write speeds.
●
If recording stops even when using a card with speed of ‘Class 6’ or faster, the data writing speed is
low. We recommend backing up the data on the memory card and reformatting it. (
