The brightness or the hue of the recorded picture is different from the actual scene.
When recording under fluorescent or LED lighting fixture, etc., increasing the shutter speed may introduce slight
changes to brightness and colour. These are a result of the characteristics of the light source and do not indicate a
malfunction.
When recording subjects in extremely bright locations or recording under fluorescent lighting, LED lighting fixture,
mercury lamp, sodium lighting, etc., the colours and screen brightness may change or horizontal striping may
appear on the screen.
Colour in recorded images may be uneven depending on the light source or subject. These are a result of the
characteristics of the light source and do not indicate a malfunction.
Reddish horizontal streaks appear on the monitor during recording.
This is characteristic of MOS sensors which serve as the unit’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 still pictures or motion pictures.
It is recommended that when you take pictures you take care not to expose the
screen to sunlight or any other source of strong light.
Subject cannot be locked.
(AF tracking not possible)
Set the AF area to the distinctive colour of the subject if there is a part that is different from the surrounding colour.

Recording motion pictures is not possible.
You may not be able to record for a short while after turning this unit on when using a large capacity microSD card.
Motion picture recording stops in the middle.
Depending on the [Rec Quality] of a motion picture, the speed class rating required for the microSD card differs. Use
a microSD card that meets the rating. For details, refer to “About the motion picture recording and SD speed class”
on P11.
When a microSD card with a slow data writing speed is used, motion picture recording may stop midway.
> For microSD cards which have been repeatedly recorded and deleted, or microSD cards which have been
formatted by PCs or other devices, we recommend that backup copies of the files inside be made before they
are deleted.
When recording a motion picture, the screen may go dark.
When recording a motion picture, the screen may go dark after a certain period to reduce battery consumption, but
this will not affect the recorded motion picture.
The screen may be blacked out momentarily, or the unit may record noise.
Depending on the environment at the time of motion picture recording, the screen may be blacked out momentarily
or the unit may record noise due to static electricity or powerful electromagnetic waves (radio towers, high voltage
power lines, etc.).
