BASIC IMAGE RECORDING
54
IMPORTANT!
• Auto Pan Focus is enabled when the “REC” tab’s
“Auto PF” setting is turned on (page 71). With Auto
Pan Focus the shutter releases without waiting for
Auto Focus to be performed and the image is
recorded as soon as you press the shutter button all
the way down. This helps to ensure that you are able
to capture exactly the moment you want.
■ Recording Precautions
• Never open the battery cover or place the camera onto
the USB cradle while the operation lamp is flashing
green. Doing so not only causes the current image to be
lost, it can also corrupt images already stored in file
memory and even lead to malfunction of the camera.
• Never remove the memory card while an image is being
recorded to the memory card.
• Fluorescent lighting actually flickers at a frequency that
cannot be detected by the human eye. When using the
camera indoors under such lighting, you may experience
some brightness or color problems with recorded images.
• When “Auto” is selected for the ISO sensitivity setting
(page 101), the camera automatically adjusts its
sensitivity in accordance with the brightness of the
subject. This can cause some digital noise (graininess) to
appear in images of relatively dark subjects.
• When recording a dimly lit subject while “Auto” is selected
for the ISO sensitivity setting (page 101), the camera
increases sensitivity and uses a faster shutter speed.
Because of this, you need to guard against camera
movement if you have flash turned off (page 59).
• Bright light shining on the lens can cause images to
appear “washed out”. This tends to happen when
recording images outdoors in bright sunlight. To protect
against this, use your free hand to shade the lens from
the light.
