Orientation Sensor - Casio K823PCM1DMX User Manual

BASIC IMAGE RECORDING

Orientation Sensor

The camera has an orientation sensor that detects whether
the camera is being held horizontally (its normal
orientation) or vertically when you record an image.
Information about camera orientation is recorded along with
the image data so the image can be displayed properly.
When you transfer images to a computer using the bundled
Photo Loader application (page 222), Photo Loader also
detects the orientation of each image and displays it
accordingly.
IMPORTANT!
• To ensure proper operation of the orientation sensor,
note the following points.
— Keep the camera still during recording. Moving
the camera while recording can cause miss-
operation of the orientation sensor.
— When recording an image using portrait (vertical)
orientation, make sure the camera is standing
straight up, 90 degrees from horizontal. A sensor
error may occur if the camera is angled more than
about 20 degrees from vertical.
— When positioning the camera vertically, keep the
flash above the lens.
