Image quality
"Taking sharper pictures"
• Taking pictures with the optical zoom
Avoid using [DIGITAL ZOOM] (p. 33) 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. This camera
is provided with [NOISE REDUCT.] (p. 38), but
when the ISO sensitivity is increased, the resulting
image is grainier than with low ISO sensitivities.
[ISO] (p. 31)
Panorama
"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.
