Panasonic Lumix DMC-LS2 Operating Instructions Manual page 25

We recommend taking pictures using AF/
AE lock.
• Even when the focus indication appears
and the subject is focused, it is canceled if
you release the shutter button. Press the
shutter button halfway again.
∫ Preventing jitter (camera shake)
• Be careful of jittering when pressing the
shutter button.
• If jitter could occur because of slow
shutter speed, the jitter alert A appears.
• When the jitter alert appears, we
recommend using a tripod. If you cannot
use a tripod, be careful how you hold the
camera (P24). The use of the self-timer
prevents jittering caused by pressing the
shutter button when you are using a tripod
(P41).
• Shutter speed will be slower particularly in
the following cases. Keep the camera still
from the moment the shutter button is
pressed until the picture appears on the
screen. We recommend using a tripod.
– Slow sync./Red-eye reduction (P38)
– [NIGHT PORTRAIT] (P50)
– [NIGHT SCENERY] (P50)
– [PARTY] (P51)
– [CANDLE LIGHT] (P51)
– [FIREWORKS] (P52)
– [STARRY SKY] (P52)
– When the shutter speed is slowed in
[SLOW SHUTTER] (P64)
∫ Exposure
• If you press the shutter button halfway
when the exposure is not adequate, the
aperture value and the shutter speed turn
red. (They do not turn red when the flash
is activated.)
F2.8 1/10
• The brightness of the screen may differ
from the brightness of the recorded
pictures especially when recording in low
light conditions.
• When most of the subjects on the screen
are bright (e.g. a blue sky on a clear day, a
snowy field etc.), the recorded pictures
may become dark. In this case,
compensate the exposure value on the
camera. (P42)
