30 31Recording - basic operation
The display button controls the LCD monitor display. The display switches between full display and
live image only each time the button is pressed. If auto reset (p. 76) is active, the display resets to
full when the camera is turned off. If the display button is pressed and held, Hibright LCD activates,
see page 52.
DISPLAY BUTTON - RECORDING MODE
Live image only
If the shutter speed falls below the point where the camera can be hand held safely, the
camera-shake warning indicator appears on the 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 position. Although the warning appears, the shutter can still
be released. If the warning appears, place the camera on a tripod or use the built-in
flash.
CAMERA-SHAKE WARNING
Digital subject programs optimize the camera’s exposure,
white-balance, and image-processing systems for specif-
ic conditions and subjects.
Set the recording-mode switch to the Digital Subject
Program position. Simply press the left and right keys of
the controller to select the appropriate subject program;
the subject program indicator is enlarged when selected.
Press the center button of the controller to enter the set-
ting.

Super Macro
Portrait - optimized to reproduce warm, soft skin tones and a slight
defocusing of the background. Most portraits look best at a telepho-
to setting; the longer focal length does not exaggerate facial fea-
tures and the shallower depth of field softens the background. Use
fill flash with strong direct sunlight or backlight to reduce harsh
shadows.
Super Macro - for close-up photographs down to 5cm (2 in.). When
selected, the lens zooms automatically to the Super Macro position;
the zoom position cannot be changed. At close object distances,
the flash may cause overexposure or uneven illumination, set the
flash mode to flash cancel (p. 28). The use of a tripod is recom-
mended.
Landscape - optimized to produce sharp, colorful landscapes.
Used with bright outdoor scenery.
