Colored stripes
appear on the
screen when
shooting.
Colored stripes may appear when shooting subjects with
repeating patterns (such as window blinds); this is not a
malfunction.
The colored stripes will not appear in captured images or
recorded movies. However, when using Continuous H: 120
fps or HS 480/4×, the colored stripes may be seen in the
captured images and recorded movies.

Images are
blurred.
• Use the flash.
• Enable vibration reduction.
• Use a tripod to stabilize the camera (using the self-timer
setting of n10s (10 seconds) at the same time is more
effective).
