General Notes on Still Photo Shooting
Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun or an
o
intense artificial light source. Doing so may damage the image sensor or the
camera's internal components.
Defocused image areas may be incomplete when shooting near maximum
o
aperture at high shutter speeds. If you dislike the appearance of defocused
image areas, shooting as follows may give better results.
• Lower the shutter speed.
• Increase the aperture value.
Image Quality
When you shoot at high ISO speeds, noise (such as dots of light and banding)
o
may become noticeable.
Shooting in high temperatures may cause noise and irregular colors in the
o
image.
Frequent shooting over an extended period may cause the camera's internal
o
temperature to rise and affect image quality. When you are not shooting,
always turn off the camera.
If you shoot a long exposure while the camera's internal temperature is high,
o
image quality may decline. Stop shooting and wait a few minutes before
shooting again.
White < s > and Red < E > Internal Temperature Warning Icons
If the camera's internal temperature rises from extended shooting or use in hot
o
environments, a white < s > or red < E > icon will appear.
The white < s > icon indicates that the image quality of still photos will decline.
o
Stop shooting for a while and allow the camera to cool down.
The red < E > icon indicates that shooting will soon end automatically.
o
Shooting will not be possible again until the camera cools down internally, so
stop shooting temporarily or turn off the camera and let it cool down a while.
Shooting in hot environments over extended periods will cause the white < s >
o
or red < E > icon to appear sooner. When you are not shooting, always turn off
the camera.
If the camera's internal temperature is high, the quality of images shot with
o
a high ISO speed or long exposure may decline even before the white < s >
icon is displayed.
Shooting Results
If you take the picture in magnified view, the exposure may not come out as
o
desired. Return to the normal view before taking the picture.
Even if you take the picture in magnified view, the image will be captured with
o
the image area of the normal view.
