Striping or flicker may appear under lighting such as fluorescent or LED lighting.
● This is characteristic of MOS sensors which serve as the camera's pickup sensors. This is not a malfunction.
● If flicker or horizontal stripes are noticeable when recording video, this can be mitigated by fixing the shutter speed.
● You can fine-adjust the shutter speed with [Synchro Scan]. (
Stripes appear in high ISO sensitivity.
