Recording images (basic)

If the shutter button is pressed all the way, at once, the camera may not focus
properly. An alternative to first pressing halfway is to enable Continuous AF.
Even when the focus indication is displayed and the focus is properly adjusted, it
will be cancelled if you release the shutter button.
Press the button halfway again.
When power saving time is set, if you do not operate the camera for a while, it is
automatically turned off at the set time. To operate the camera again, press the
shutter button or turn the power switch first to [OFF] and then to [ON]. (P80)
The brightness of the LCD monitor/Viewfinder may differ from that of the recorded
pictures. In particular, when taking pictures in dark places with a long time
exposure, darkness appears on the LCD monitor/Viewfinder, but the recorded
pictures are bright.
If the exposure is not properly set, the color of the aperture value and the shutter
speed on the LCD monitor/Viewfinder becomes red.
In the following cases, the focus may not be adjusted properly.
1 Recording a scene including subjects both near and far
2 Recording a scene through a dirty pane of glass
3 Recording an illuminated subject
4 Recording in darkness
5 Recording a moving subject
6 Recording a subject with little contrast
7 Recording with shutter jiggle
We recommend that you set the clock setting again before taking pictures.
When the brightness of the LCD monitor/Viewfinder changes such as while
zooming or panning, you may hear a click sound from the lens or the image on the
LCD monitor/Viewfinder may change suddenly; this is not a malfunction. The
sound is caused by the camera automatically adjusting the aperture value.
About shutter jiggle
To prevent shutter jiggle, be careful when you press the shutter button.
When the shutter jiggle alert 1 appears, we recommend you use a tripod.
