le Tips

Ifthe camera does not work as intended, or if

an error message is displayed on the screen,

and you are unsure of what to do, refer to the

information below to fix the problem(s).

Troubleshooting

Battery

"The camera does not work even when

batteries are installed".

•Insert recharged batteries in the correct direction.

"Inserting the battery" (p. 10)

• Battery performance may have been reduced

temporarily due to low temperature. Take the

batteries out of the camera, and warm them by

putting them in your pocket for a while.

Card/Internal memory

"An error message is displayed".

"Errormessage"(p. 54)

Shutter button

"No picture is taken when the shutter

button is pressed".

• Cancel sleep mode.

To save battery power, the camera automatically

goes into sleep mode and the monitor turns off

if there is no operation for 3 minutes when the

camera is turned on. No picture is taken even if

the shutter button is fully pressed in this mode.

Operate the zoom lever or other buttons to restore

the camera from sleep mode before taking a

picture. If the camera is left for another 12 minutes,

it automatically turns off. Press the ON/OFF button

to turn the camera on.

• Press the [] button to switch to the shooting

mode.

• Wait until ,_ (flash charge) stops blinking before

taking pictures.

• With prolonged camera use, the internal

temperature may increase, resulting in automatic

shutdown. If this occurs, remove the battery

from the camera and wait until the camera

has sufficiently cooled. The camera's external

temperature may also increase during use,

however this is normal and does not indicate

malfunction.

Monitor

"Difficult to see".

• Condensation _ may have occurred. Turn off the

power, and wait for the camera body to become

acclimated to the surrounding temperature and dry

out before taking pictures.

*_ Dew drops can form in the camera when it is

suddenly taken from a cold bcation into a warm,

humid room.

"Vertical lines appear on the screen".

• This condition may occur when the camera is

pointed at an extremely bright subject under a

clear sky and so on. The lines do not appear,

however, in the final image.

"The light is caught in the picture".

• Shooting with flash in dark situations results in

an image with many flash reflections on dust in

the air.

Date and time function

"Date and time settings return to the

default setting".

• If the batteries are removed and left out of the

camera for about 3 days"2,the date and time

settings return to the default setting, and must

be reset.

,2 The time until the date and time settings return

to the default setting varies depending on how

long the batteries have been loaded.

"Setting the date, time and time zone" (p. 13)

Miscellaneous

"The camera makes a noise when taking

pictures".

• The camera may activate the tens and make a

noise even if no operation is performed. This

is because the camera automatically performs

actions of auto focus as far as it is ready to shoot.

.........ShoQting tips

When you are unsure of how to take a picture

that you envision, refer to the information below.

Focusing :

"Focusing on the subject"

• Taking apicture of asubject not in the center

of the screen

After focusing on an object at the same distance

as the subject, compose the shot, and take the

picture.

Pressing the shutter button halfway (p. 15)

• Set [AF MODE] (p. 31) to [FACE/iESP]

•Taking a picture in [AF TRACKING] mode

(p. 31)

The camera tracks the subject movement

automatically to focus on it continuously.

• Taking a picture of ashadowy subject

Using the AF illuminator makes focusing easier.

[AF ILLUMINAT.] (p. 34)

• Taking a picture of subjects where autofocus

is difficult

In the following cases, after focusing on an object

(by pressing the shutter button halfway down) with

high contrast at the same distance as the subject,

compose the shot, and take the picture.

Subjects with tow contrast

When extremely bright objects

appear in the center of the

screen

Fast-moving object

The subject is not in the center

of the frame

Camera shake

"Taking pictures without camera shake"

• Taking pictures using [IMAGE STABILIZER)

(p. 33)

When a picture is taken of a shadowy subject, the

CCD '_shifts to correct for camera shake even if

the ISO speed is not increased. This function is

also effective when taking pictures at a high zoom

magnification.

A device that takes light received through the

tens and converts it into etectric signals.

• Shooting movies using [IS MOVIE MODE]

(p. 33)

• Select ¢L_,(SPORT) in the scene mode (p. 21)

The t_ (SPORT) mode uses a fast shutter speed

and can reduce the blur incurred by a moving

subject.

• Taking pictures at a high ISO sensitivity

If a high ISO sensitivity is selected, pictures can

be taken at a high shutter speed even at locations

where a flash cannot be used.

"Selecting the ISO sensitivity" (p. 28)

Object with no vertical lines*_

'_ It is also effective to compose the shot by holding the

camera vertically to focus, and then returning to the

horizontal position to take the picture.

When objects are at different

distances

"Taking pictures with the right

brightness"

•Taking pictures of a subject against a backtight

Faces or backgrounds are bright even when shot

against back]ight.

[SHADOW ADJUST] (p. 31)

• Taking pictures using [FACE/iESP] (p. 31)

Appropriate exposure is obtained for a face

against back]ight, and the face is brightened.

• Taking pictures using [_] for [ESP/I_q]

(p. 32)

Brightness is matched with a subject in the center

of the screen and the image is not affected by

background fight.

• Taking pictures using [FILL IN] (p. 26) flash

Asubject against backlight is brightened.

•Taking pictures of a white beach or snow

scene

Set the mode to [_'_ BEACH & SNOW] (p. 21)

• Taking pictures using exposure compensation

(p. 27)

Adjust the brightness while viewing the screen

for taking the picture. Normally, taking pictures of

white subjects (such as snow) results in images

that are darker than the actual subject. Use the

exposure compensation to adjust in the positive

(+) direction to express whites as they appear.

When taking pictures of black subjects, on the

other hand, it is effective to adjust in the negative

(-) direction.

Colorhue

"Taking pictures with colors at the same

shade as they appear"

• Taking pictures by selecting white balance

(p. 28)

Best results in most environments can normally

be obtained with the [WB AUTO] setting, but for

some subjects, you should try experimenting

with different settings. [This is especially true for

sunshade under a clear sky, mixed natural and

artificial light settings, and so on.)

• Taking pictures using [FILL IN] (p. 26) flash

Use of the flash is also effective for shooting under

fluorescent and other artificial lighting.

"Taking sharper pictures"

• Taking pictures with the optical zoom

Avoid using digital zoom (p. 32) to take pictures.

• Taking pictures at a low ISO sensitivity

If the picture is taken with a high ISO sensitivity,

noise [small colored spots and color unevenness

that were not in the original image) can occur, and

the image can appear grainy.

"Selecting the ISO sensitivity" (p. 28)

"Taking pictures so that the frames are

stitched smoothly"

• A tip for panoramic shooting

Taking pictures by pivoting with the camera at the

center prevents shifting of the image. When taking

pictures of close objects in particular, pivoting with

the lens end at the center produces favorable

results.

[PANORAMA] (p. 23)

"Making batteries last longer"

• Avoid any of the following operations when not

actually taking pictures because they deplete

the battery power

• Repeatedly pressing the shutter button

halfway.

• Repeatedly using the zoom.

• Set [POWER SAVE] (p. 47) to [ON]

..........PlaybaGk/Editing tips ...................................................................

"Playing images in the internal memory

and card"

• Remove the card and display the images in

internal memory

• "Inserting the SD/SDHC memory card (sold

separately)" (p. 14)

• Selecting a storage device

[INTERNAL/SD] (p. 41)

"Viewing images with high picture quality

on a high-definition TV"

•Connect the camera to the TV using an HDMI

cable (sold separately)
