• Is the ISO sensitivity high or the shutter speed slow?
(ISO sensitivity is set to [AUTO] when the camera is shipped. Therefore, when taking pictures
indoors etc. noise will appear.)
Decrease the ISO sensitivity. (P85)
Increase the setting for [NOISE RED.] in [FILM MODE] or lower the setting for each of the
items other than [NOISE RED.]. (P87)
Take pictures in bright places.
Set the [LONG SHTR NR] to [ON]. (P123)
• If recording under fluorescent light, the brightness or the hue may change slightly when the
shutter speed becomes fast. This occurs due to the characteristics of fluorescent light. It is not
a malfunction.
• This is characteristic of MOS sensors which serve as the camera’s pickup sensors. It appears
when the subject has a bright part. Some unevenness may occur in the surrounding areas, but
this is not a malfunction.
It is recorded in motion pictures but is not recorded on still pictures.
• It is recommended that you take pictures while taking care not to expose the screen to sunlight
or any other source of strong light.
• It is recommended to use a card with SD Speed Class
_
with “Class 6” or higher when recording
motion pictures.
_ SD speed class is the speed standard regarding continuous writing.
• Depending on the type of the card, recording may stop in the middle.
When you set the picture quality to [ ], [ ] or [ ], we recommend using a
high-speed card with “10MB/s” or greater displayed on the package.
In the event that it stops even after using a “10MB/s” card or higher, the data writing speed
has deteriorated so it is recommended to make a backup and then format (P37).
• Are you in exposure compensation operation?
Press the front dial to switch to exposure compensation operation. (P70)
• Set the AF area to the distinctive colour of the subject if there is a part that is different from the
surrounding colour. (P77)
