Exposure
If you press the shutter button halfway
when the exposure is not adequate, the
indication of the aperture value and the
shutter speed turns red. (However, the
aperture value and the shutter speed do
not turn red when the flash is activated.)
The brightness of the LCD monitor may
differ from that of recorded pictures. The
subject looks dark on the LCD monitor,
but the actual picture is bright.
When most of the subjects in the screen
are bright (e.g. blue sky on a clear day,
snowy field, etc.), the recorded pictures
may become dark. In this case,
compensate the exposure value on the
camera. (P41)
When you press the shutter button, the
LCD monitor may become bright or dark
for a moment. This function allows easy
adjustment of focus and the recorded
picture will not be affected.
We recommend making sure the clock is
set properly before taking pictures. (P19)
When the time for power save is set (P20),
the camera is automatically turned off if
you do not operate within the set time.
When operating the camera again, press
the shutter button halfway or turn the
camera off and on.
In some cases, if the distance between
the camera and the subject is beyond the
recordable range when you use the
camera, the picture may not be properly
focused even if the focus indication is lit.
