7: The recorded picture looks rough.
Noise appears on the picture.
• 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. the ISO
sensitivity increases.)
– Decrease the ISO sensitivity. (P72)
– Set [PICT.ADJ.] to [NATURAL]. (P78)
– Take pictures in bright places.
• In [HIGH SENS.] (P55) in scene mode,
the resolution of the recorded picture
decreases slightly because of high
sensitivity processing.
This is not a malfunction.
8: Motion picture recording stops in the
middle.
• Are you using a MultiMediaCard?
– This unit does not support
MultiMediaCards.
• When you set the picture quality to
[30fpsVGA] or [30fps16:9], we
recommend using a high speed SD
Memory Card with “10MB/s” or greater
displayed on the package.
• Depending on the type of SD Memory
Card or SDHC Memory Card, recording
may stop in the middle.
9: A vertical line appears on the LCD
monitor while recording motion
pictures.
• This is a phenomenon called smear. It
is a characteristic of CCD and appears
when the subject has a bright part.
Uneven colors may also appear around
the smear. This is not a malfunction. It
is recorded in motion pictures but is not
recorded on still pictures.
