Shooting Features
The camera can detect your moving hand and automatically capture images.
This function is useful when taking self-portrait pictures or shooting from a
short distance.
1 Open the monitor and face it
forward in the same direction as
the camera lens (A2).
• U is displayed in the monitor. U is not
displayed when using a shooting mode that cannot be used with the
gesture control function.
• When you take pictures from a short distance, use the camera stand (A3)
and place the camera on a stable surface.
2 Tap U.
• When you tap I on the confirmation
dialog, n (palm detection) is displayed in
the monitor.
3 Hold up your hand and align it
with n in the center of the frame.
• When the camera detects your palm, n
changes to o, and p (to take a still image)
and q (to record a movie) are displayed in
the monitor.
4 Move your hand to align o with
p or q.
• The shutter is released after a countdown
(about three seconds).
• Press the b (movie-record) button on the
camera body to end the recording.
See “Extracting and Saving the Desired
Portion of a Recorded Movie” (A85) for
information on how to remove unwanted parts of movies.
