• We recommend checking that the clock is
set properly before taking pictures. (P20)
• When you press the shutter button, the
screen may become bright or dark for a
moment. This function allows easy
adjustment of focus and the recorded
picture will not be affected.
• When the time for power save is set
(P23), the camera is automatically turned
off if you do not operate it within the set
time. When operating the camera again,
press the shutter button halfway or turn
the camera off and on.
• To avoid picture noise, we recommend
decreasing the ISO sensitivity, setting
[NOISE REDUCTION] in [PICT.ADJ.] to
[HIGH] or setting every item except
[NOISE REDUCTION] to [LOW]. (P91)
(ISO sensitivity is set to [AUTO] when the
camera is shipped. Therefore, when
taking pictures indoors etc. the ISO
sensitivity increases.)
n Program shift
In Program AE mode, you can change the
preset aperture value and the shutter
speed under the same exposure. This is
called Program shift.
By this function, you can make the
background more blurred (by decreasing
the aperture value) or record the moving
subject more dynamically (by setting to
slow shutter speed) in Program AE mode.
• Press the shutter button halfway and
perform the program shift with the joystick
while the aperture value and the shutter
speed are displayed (about 10 seconds).
• When the Program shift is activated, the
Program shift indication
1 appears on the
screen.
• Program shift is canceled if the camera is
turned off or the joystick is moved up and
down until the program shift indication
disappears.
