shutter button halfway. (P38)
• White balance is set to [AUTO] in the default position. You can change the setting.

• The stabilizer function is effective only when taking a picture horizontally moving
the camera from side to side.
Recording images (advanced)
Panning is a technique of moving the camera
tracking a subject in motion.
Using a slower shutter speed when tracking a
subject, you can sharply photograph a subject

in motion while blurring the background.
In very bright summer daylight, if the shutter
speed cannot be set slow enough to blur the
background, please use the ND filter
(DMW-LND55, optional). (P59)
Please try to use the prefocus technique to
reduce the time for focusing while shooting a
fast moving subject. (P38)
