Others
3: The recorded picture is blurred.
• When taking a picture especially in dark
places, the shutter speed becomes
slow and the optical image stabilizer
function may not work properly. In this
case, we recommend holding the
camera with both hands firmly to take
pictures. When you take pictures with
slow shutter speed, we recommend
using a tripod and the self-timer (P53)
for taking pictures.
4: The recorded picture is whitish.
The lens is dirty.
• The picture can become whitish if there
is dirt e.g. fingerprints on the lens.
When the lens is dirty, turn the camera
on and lightly wipe the surface of the
lens with a soft dry cloth.
5: Motion picture recording stops in the
middle.
• Are you using a MultiMediaCard?
– This unit does not support
MultiMediaCard.
• When you set the picture quality to
[30fpsVGA], we recommend using a
high speed SD Memory Card with
"10 MB/s" or greater displayed on the
package.
• Depending on the number of pictures,
type of card and number of pictures
deleted, recording may stop in the
middle when you are recording. If
something like this happens, clean-up
may be effective. We recommend you
clean up the card using the camera in
advance. (P114)
