Is the number of recordable pictures 2 or less?
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. noise will appear.)
> Decrease the ISO sensitivity. (P109)
> Set [COLOR MODE] to [NATURAL]. (P119)
> Take pictures in bright places.
Has [HIGH SENS.] or [HI-SPEED BURST] in the Scene Mode been set? If so, the resolution of
the recorded picture decreases slightly because of high sensitivity processing, but this is not a
malfunction.
If recording under fluorescent light, the brightness or the hue may change slightly when the
shutter speed becomes fast. This occurs due to the characteristics of fluorescent light. It is not
a malfunction.
Use a card with SD Speed Class
¢
with “Class 4” or higher when recording motion pictures in
[AVCHD Lite].
Also, use a card with SD Speed Class with “Class 6” or higher when recording motion pictures
in [MOTION JPEG].
¢ SD Speed Class is the speed standard regarding continuous writing.
Depending on the type of the card, recording may stop in the middle.
> If motion picture recording stops during use of a card of at least “Class 4” or if you use a
card that has been formatted on a PC or other equipment, the data-writing speed is lower.
In such cases, we recommend that you make a backup of the data and then format (P41)
the card in this unit.
If the subject has different colors as the periphery, set the AF area to those colors specific to
the subject by aligning that area with the AF area. (P114)
Taking pictures using Auto Bracket is not possible.
The recorded picture looks rough.
Noise appears on the picture.
The brightness or the hue of the recorded picture is different from the actual
scene.
When recording pictures or half-pressing the shutter button, reddish stripes may
appear on the LCD monitor. Alternatively, part or all of the LCD monitor may turn
a reddish color.
This is a characteristic of CCDs, and 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 motion pictures but is not recorded on still 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.
Motion picture recording stops in the middle.
The subject cannot be locked. (AF track fails)
