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.
