BASIC IMAGE RECORDING
About Auto Focus
• Auto Focus tends not to work well if the camera is moved
during recording, or when recording the types of subjects
listed below.
— Solid color walls or objects with little contrast
— Strongly backlit objects
— Polished metal or other brightly reflective objects
— Venetian blinds or other horizontally repeating patterns
— Multiple images that are varying distances from the
camera
— Subjects in poorly lit areas
— Moving subjects
• Note that a green operation lamp and focus frame do not
necessarily guarantee that an image is in focus.
• If Auto Focus does not produce the results you want for
some reason, try using focus lock (page 57) or manual fo-
cus (page 55).
About the Recording Mode Monitor
Screen
• The image shown on the monitor screen in a recording
mode is a simplified image for composing purposes. The
actual image is recorded in accordance with the image
quality setting currently selected on your camera. The im-
age saved on memory has much better resolution and de-
tail than a recording mode monitor screen image.
• Certain levels of subject brightness can cause the re-
sponse of the monitor screen in a recording mode to slow
down, which causes some static noise in the monitor
screen image.
