Recording pictures (basic)
37
ª Focusing
• The focus range is 1.97 feet
(60 cm)–¶ (AF). It is 0.98 feet
(30 cm)–¶ (AF-Macro/MF).
• If you press the shutter button fully
without prefocusing, pictures may be
blurry or unfocused.
• When the focus indicator is blinking,
the subject is not focused. Press the
shutter button halfway and focus on
the subject again.
• When the subject is focused, the
camera beeps 2 times. If not, it beeps
4times.
• If the camera will not focus after a few
tries, turn it off and on and try again.
• Refer to P25 if you want to turn the
operational sound off.
• In the following cases, you cannot
focus on the subject with auto focus
adequately.
–When including both near and
distant subjects in a scene
–When there is dirt on the glass
between the lens and the subject
–When there are illuminated or
glittering objects around the subject
–When taking a picture in a dark place
–When the subject is moving fast
–When the scene is poor in contrast
–When jitter (camera shake) occurs
–When recording a very bright subject
We recommend taking pictures using
manual focus (P41) or AF/AE lock
(P39).
• Even if the focus indication appears
and the subject is focused, it is
canceled when you press the shutter
button. Press the shutter button
halfway again.
ª Jitter (Camera shake)
• 1 appears when jitter (camera shake)
occurs.
• If the jitter (camera shake) alert
appears it is usually caused by using a
long exposure time. In these situations
we recommend either using a tripod or
shortening the exposure time.
• If a long exposure time is required,
and a tripod can support the camera,
we suggest using the self-timer feature
(P50) to avoid movement while
pressing the shutter button.
ª Care for the camera
• Check to make sure there is no stain
or dirt on the lens.
• Do not touch the lens directly.
• Do not cause impact to the lens.
• Take care not to touch or stain the
surface of the lens. When the lens
becomes dirty or dust attaches to the
lens, use a commercial blower brush
to remove dust or dirt and wipe the
lens with a dry, soft cloth. If you use
solvents such as benzine, alcohol or
thinner, the camera may be discolored
or broken.
• When using the camera in a sandy or
dusty place, be careful not to let dirt,
grit or seawater enter the camera.
