only image saved.
- Once the shutter-release button is pressed all the way, hold the camera still until a still
image is displayed. After taking a picture, do not turn the camera off before the screen
switches to the shooting screen.
- The angle of view (i.e., the area visible in the frame) seen in the saved image is
narrower than that seen on the shooting screen.
- Under some shooting conditions, dark shadows may appear around bright subjects
or bright areas may appear around dark subjects.
