Recording (continued)
The subject appears distorted.
●
An MOS sensor is used as the imaging device in this camera, so if the subject passes quickly
in front of the lens, it will appear slightly distorted. Note, however, that this does not indicate a
malfunction.
An unusual noise, such as clicking or buzzing, is recorded in a motion picture.
The audio level is extremely low.
●
When recording a motion picture in a quiet environment, noise due to the motion of the aperture and
focusing mechanism may be recorded. Note that this is not a fault. You can set the focus operation
during motion picture recording to [OFF] using [Continuous AF] (→151).
●
Note that if you perform operations such as zooming, using buttons or dials, while recording a
motion picture, operational noise may be recorded.
●
If you cover the microphone opening while recording a motion picture, the audio level may be low, or
no sound at all may be recorded. Note that in this case, noise due to the motion of the lens is more
likely to be recorded.
Panorama picture recording stops before it is finished.
●
If the panning motion of the camera is too slow, the camera assumes that the operation has been
aborted and stops recording.
●
If the panning motion of the camera is too shaky when it is moved in the recording direction, the
camera stops recording.
→ To record panorama pictures, pan the camera in a small circular motion parallel to the recording
direction at a speed of approx. 8 seconds per revolution (guideline).
The subject cannot be locked. (AF track fails)
●
If the color of the subject is similar to that of its background, AF Tracking may not function. Set the
AF lock to the colors specific to the subject.
Flash
No flash is fired.
●
The flash is retracted into the camera housing.
→ Operate the flash open switch to let the flash pop up.
●
The flash becomes unavailable in the following cases:
• With [Burst Shooting] (Excluding [
])
• With [Auto Bracket]
• With the Scene Modes ([Scenery] [Panorama Shot] [Night Scenery] [Handheld Night Shot] [HDR]
[Sunset] [Glass Through] [3D Photo Mode])
• With the [Creative Control] mode (excluding [Smooth Defocus] and [Radial Defocus])
Multiple flashes are fired.
●
Red-eye reduction is active (→107). (Flashes twice to prevent eyes appearing red.)
●
[Burst Shooting] is set to [ ].
