•
If you have the image stabilizer option on when shooting a movie, the
camera may record the image stabilizer sound.
•
The zoom sound or other lens sounds may be recorded if you adjust the lens
while recording a video.

The camera saves photos in either the JPEG or RAW format.
Photos captured by a camera are often transformed to the JPEG format
and stored in the memory according to the settings of the camera at the
time of shooting. RAW les are not transformed to the JPEG format and are
stored in the memory without any changes.
RAW les have the le extension “SRW”. To adjust and calibrate exposures,
White Balances, tones, contrasts, and colors of the RAW les, or to convert
them into JPEG or TIFF format, use the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom
program found on the supplied DVD-ROM.

Use the Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) function to minimize camera
shake. OIS may not be available with some lenses.
Camera shake tends to occur in dark places or when shooting indoors.
In such cases, the camera uses slower shutter speeds in order to increase
the amount of light taken in, which can result in a blurry photo. You can
prevent this situation by using the OIS function.
If your lens has an OIS switch, you have set the switch to ON to use the OIS
function.

The metering mode refers to the way in which a camera measures the
quantity of light.
The camera measures the amount of light in a scene, and in many of its
modes, uses the measurement to adjust various settings. For example,
if a subject looks darker than its actual color, the camera captures an
overexposed photo of it. If a subject looks lighter than its actual color, the
camera captures an underexposed photo of it.
The brightness and overall mood of the photo can also be aected by how
the camera measures the amount of light. Select an appropriate setting for
a shooting condition.
To set a metering
option,
In Shooting mode, press [m]

Multi
The Multi mode calculates the amount of light in multiple areas. When
light is sucient or insucient, the camera adjusts the exposure by
averaging the overall brightness of the scene. This mode is suitable for
general photos.
Metering
94
Shooting Functions > Metering
Spot
The Spot mode calculates the amount of light in the center. When you
capture a photo in conditions where there is a strong backlight behind a
subject, the camera adjusts the exposure so as to shoot a subject correctly.
For example, when you select the Multi mode in a strong backlight
condition, the camera calculates that the overall amount of light is
abundant, which results in a darker photo. The Spot mode can prevent this
situation as it calculates the amount of light in a designated area.
The subject is in bright color while the background is dark. The Spot mode
is recommended for a situation like this where a huge dierence in the
exposure exists between a subject and a background.
Center-weighted
The Center-weighted mode calculates a broader area than the Spot mode
does. It sums up the amount of light in the center portion of the shot
(60–80 %) and that of the rest of the shot (20–40 %). It is recommended
for situations where there is a slight dierence in brightness between a
subject and a background or an area of the subject is large compared to
the overall composition of the photo.
