If the shutter speed falls below the point where the camera
can be safely hand held, regardless if Anti-Shake is active or
not (p. 56), the camera-shake warning appears on the LCD
monitor. Camera shake is slight blurring caused by subtle
hand motion and is more pronounced at the telephoto
position of the lens than at the wide-angle. Although the
warning appears, the shutter can still be released. If the
warning appears, place the camera on a tripod, use the built-
in flash, or zoom the lens towards the wide-angle position
until the warning disappears.
CAMERA-SHAKE WARNING
FLASH RANGE - AUTO-RECORDING MODE
The camera controls the flash output automatically. For well-exposed images, the subject
must be within the flash range. Distance is given from the front of the lens. Because of
the optical system, the flash range is not the same at the lens’ wide-angle position as it
is at the telephoto position.
Telephoto position - 1.2 - 2.2m (3.9 - 7.2 ft.)
Wide-angle position - 0.2 - 3.6m (0.7 - 11.8 ft.)
Camera-shake warning
If the flash output was sufficient to illuminate the subject, the flash-output
indicator briefly replaces the flash-mode indicator after the exposure.
