General Still Photo Shooting Cautions
Do not point the camera toward an intense light source, such as the sun or an
z
intense artificial light source. Doing so may damage the image sensor or the
camera's internal components.
Image Quality
When you shoot at high ISO speeds, noise (such as dots of light and banding)
z
may become noticeable.
Shooting in high temperatures may cause noise and irregular colors in the
z
image.
Frequent shooting over an extended period may cause the camera's internal
z
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,
z
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
z
environments, a white [s] or red [E] icon will appear.
The white [s] icon indicates that the image quality of still photos will decline.
z
Stop shooting for a while and allow the camera to cool down.
The red [E] icon indicates that shooting will soon end automatically. Shooting
z
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]
z
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 a
z
high ISO speed or long exposure may decline even before the white [s] icon
is displayed.
Shooting Results
In magnified view, the shutter speed and aperture will be displayed in red. If you
z
take the picture in magnified view, the exposure may not come out as 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
z
the image area of the normal view.
