The subjects appear 
distorted

p

p

If a subject has suddenly crossed in front of the camera, it may 
appear slightly distorted because this camera uses a MOS 
image sensor. 
This is normal and not indicative of any problem.

p

The subjects sometimes appear distorted owing to the 
characteristics of the wide-angle lens used. This is normal and 
not indicative of any problem.

When the flash is fired 
during shooting, only 
the top or bottom of 
the screen becomes 
lighter

p

p

With a MOS image sensor, the shooting timing differs slightly 
between the top left and bottom right of the screen. This means 
that when the flash is fired, the bottom of the screen will 
become lighter in the field concerned and the top will become 
lighter in the next field. 
This is normal and not indicative of any problem.

When fine lines or 
cyclical patterns are 
shot, flickering is seen 
or colouring is added 
to them

p

p

This phenomenon occurs because the pixels are arranged 
systematically on each image sensor. It is noticeable when the 
spatial frequency of a subject and the pixel pitch are brought 
into proximity so change the camera angle or take other such 
action.
