Konica Minolta Z3 Camcorder User Manual


 
115
Pictures are
not sharp.
Pictures are
taken indoors or
in low-light situ-
ations without
flash.
Slow shutter speeds
result in blurred images
when the camera is
hand-held.
Use a tripod, change the camera
sensitivity to a higher setting (p.
62), or use the flash (p. 26).
The subject is beyond
the flash range (p. 62).
Move closer to the subject or
change the camera sensitivity to
a higher setting (p. 62).
While using flash, the pictures
are too dark.
The camera temperature rises with extended periods of use. Care should be taken to avoid burns
when handling the camera, batteries, or memory card.
If the camera does not function normally or the system error message appears, turn the camera off,
remove and reinsert the batteries, or unplug and reconnect the AC adapter. If the camera has
become hot with extended use, wait for it to cool before removing or disconnecting the power sup-
ply. Always turn the camera off using the main switch otherwise the memory card may be damaged
and the camera reset.
The camera controls the live monitor image by varying the CCD sensitivity and controlling the aper-
ture. The aperture can sometimes be heard stopping down or opening up with changes in subject
brightness.
Focus is continuously adjusted with the sports action subject program and continuous AF. While
focusing, the live image may appear to jump. Wait until the focus signal confirms focus or release
and press the shutter-release button again.
