Note
•
The focus, zoom, exposure, White Balance, shutter speed and ISO sensitivity are fixed to the
settings for the first picture.
• We recommend using a tripod. When it is dark, we recommend using the Self-timer for taking
pictures.
• Shutter speed may slow down up to 8 seconds.
• The shutter may remain closed (max. about 8 sec.) after taking the picture because of signal
processing. This is not a malfunction.
• The recorded images can be combined into panorama pictures using the software
“PHOTOfunSTUDIO” on the CD-ROM (supplied).
Select this when you want to take pictures at a wedding reception, an indoor party etc.
This allows you to take pictures of people and the background with near real-life
brightness.
