BASIC IMAGE RECORDING
64
*1 The size of the opening (aperture) that allows light
passing through the lens to reach the CCD. A larger
aperture value indicates a smaller opening for light to
pass through.
*2 The amount of time the shutter remains open, allowing
light passing through the lens to reach the CCD. A
larger shutter speed value indicates that the shutter
remains open longer, which means more light reaches
the CCD.

After making sure that the
image is focused properly,
press the shutter button the
rest of the way down to
record.
• The number of images you can
record depends on the image
size and the image quality setting
you are using (pages 77, 79,

■ Recording Precautions
• Never open the battery cover or unplug the AC adaptor
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 119), 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 119), 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 69).
• 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.
