Preventing Blur
To prevent blur caused by the camera moving when the shutter is
released (“ camera shake”), press the shutterrelease button smoothly
and gently.
Blur is particularly likely to occur if:
• the flash is off and lighting is poor, or
• the camera is zoomed in.
In situations in which photographs are especially prone to blurring
caused by camera shake, the camera will display a J icon. The
following are recommended to prevent blur.
Blur Reduction
Blur can be reduced by selecting [On] for [Shake Correction] in the
shooting menu (GP.71). Note that this option may not be available
in some modes (GP.104).
Caution ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• Blur reduction has no effect on blur caused by subject movement (motion blur).
• Blur reduction is on by default.
Using the Flash
The flash can be activated by choosing a flash mode of [AUTO] or [ON]
(GP.29).
Raising ISO
Blur can sometimes be prevented by choosing a higher ISO (GP.56),
although note that “noise” (random variations in brightness and color)
may appear in photographs taken at higher ISOs.
