• In tele macro mode, the depth of field is
narrowed and camera jitter occurs easier
than usual. Therefore, when you cannot
use a tripod, we recommend taking
pictures with a brightness equivalent to
having the aperture value set to F4.0 or a
higher number and the shutter speed is
set to 1/125th of a second or faster to
keep the depth of field and the
performance of the stabilizer function.
• If the distance between the camera and
the subject is beyond the focus range of
the camera, the picture may not be
properly focused even if the focus
indication lights.
• AF Macro gives priority to a subject close
to the camera. Therefore, if the distance
between the camera and the subject is
more than 1 m it takes longer to focus
than in programme AE mode [ ].
• The available flash range is about 30 cm
to 6.0 m (Wide). (When the ISO sensitivity
is set to [AUTO].) We recommend setting
the flash to Forced OFF [ ] when you
take pictures at close range.
• If you focus on the subject at 2 m or less
distant position with tele-macro function
when setting the optical zoom
magnification in 18M and then rotate the
zoom lever for setting the optical zoom
magnification to 11M or less, the subject
becomes unfocused.
• When you take pictures at close range,
the resolution of the periphery of the
picture may decrease slightly. This is not a
malfunction.
• If the lens becomes dirty with fingerprints
or dust, the lens may not be able to focus
on the subject correctly.
Aperture-priority AE
Set the aperture value to a higher number
when you want a sharp focus background.
Set the aperture value to a lower number
when you want a soft focus background.
1 Tilt the joystick towards / to
set the aperture value.
2 Take a picture.
• Refer to P51 for the available aperture
values and the shutter speed.
• Set the aperture value to a higher number
when the subject is too bright. Set the
aperture value to a lower number when
the subject is too dim.
• The brightness of the LCD monitor/
Viewfinder and the recorded pictures may
differ. Check the pictures using the review
function or playback mode.
• The aperture value and the shutter speed
displayed on the screen turn red when the
exposure is not adequate.
