Note
When you use a zoom function other than the optical zoom, setting the zoom scale larger
makes [Toy Camera] less effective.
When [Partial Color] is selected, images may not retain the selected color, depending on
the subject or shooting conditions.
You cannot check the following effects on the shooting screen, because the product
processes the image after the shot. Also, you cannot shoot another image until image
processing is finished. You cannot use these effects with movies.
