recommend using a tripod and the self-timer.
As pictures may become dark when using faster values such as '1/250', we recommend
that pictures are taken in bright locations (

Motion pictures recorded in 'AVCHD Lite' format cannot be played back on non-
AVCHD-compatible devices (standard DVD players, etc).
In some cases, motion pictures recorded in 'AVCHD Lite' and 'MOTION JPEG' may have
poor image quality or sound quality during playback or may not be able to be played back
even when using equipment supporting these standards. The recording information also may
not be displayed correctly. If this happens, play the motion pictures back using the camera.
Motion pictures recorded in 'AVCHD Lite' are not compliant with DCF and Exif, and so some
information (such as the picture number and white balance) are not displayed during playback.
Using a card of SD speed 'Class 6'* or above is recommended for recording motion
pictures.
The SD speed class is a speed rating for continuous writing.
Using a high-speed card with a specified speed (e.g. on packaging) of at least 10 MB/s
is recommended when 'REC QUALITY' is set to 'HD', 'WVGA', or 'VGA'.
Motion pictures cannot be recorded to MultiMediaCards.
To play back motion pictures recorded in 'AVCHD Lite' format using a computer, please
use the 'PHOTOfunSTUDIO' software on the CD-ROM supplied.

This is a data format suitable for playback on high-definition
TVs. This format enables an extended recording time in high-
resolution compared to motion pictures recorded in Motion
JPEG at the same picture size.
This is a data format suitable for playback on computers that
allows even small picture sizes to be recorded. The data
format is useful when there is little space left on a memory
card or when the motion picture file will be attached to an
e-mail from a computer.
