∫ Example of program shift when using
the supplied lens
(A): Aperture value
(B): Shutter speed
1 Program shift amount
2 Program shift line chart
• If the exposure is not adequate when the
shutter button is pressed halfway, the
aperture value and the shutter speed on
the LCD monitor (information display
screen) turn red. The aperture value and
the shutter speed blink on the Viewfinder.
(They do not blink when the flash is
activated.)
• Program shift is canceled and the camera
returns to normal program AE mode if
more than 10 seconds pass after program
shift is activated. However, the program
shift setting is memorized.
• Depending on the brightness of the
subject, program shift may not be
activated.
∫ Focusing
• The focus range with auto focus is
29 cm (0.95 feet) to ¶. (when the
supplied lens is attached)
• If the distance between the camera and
the subject is beyond the focus range of
the camera, the picture may not be
properly focused even if the focus
indication lights.
• The camera will not focus on subjects
properly in the following cases.
– When there are both near and distant
subjects in a scene.
– When there is dirt or dust on glass
between the lens and the subject.
– When there are illuminated or glittering
objects around the subject.
– When taking a picture in dark places.
– When the subject is moving fast.
– When the scene has low contrast.
– When jitter occurs.
– When recording a very bright subject.
– When taking pictures of objects with a
repeated pattern e.g. the windows on a
building.
We recommend taking pictures using AF/
AE lock (P63). In dark places, the AF
assist lamp (P82) may turn on for focusing
on the subject.
• Even when the focus indication appears
and the subject is focused, it is canceled if
you release the shutter button. Press the
shutter button halfway again.
