Q&A Troubleshooting
Recording (continued)
Recorded pictures are blurred. Optical Image Stabiliser ineffective.
Shutter speed is slower in dark locations and Optical Image Stabiliser is less effective.
→ Hold camera firmly with both hands, keeping arms close to body.
Use a tripod and the self-timer (→56) when using slower shutter speed with [Min. Shtr Speed].
Cannot use [Auto Bracket].
Only enough memory for 2 pictures or fewer.
Recorded pictures appear coarse, or there is interference.
ISO Sensitivity is high, or shutter speed is low.
(Default [Sensitivity] setting is [AUTO] – interference may appear with indoor pictures.)
→ Lower [Sensitivity] (→81).
→ Take pictures in brighter locations.
Camera set to [High Sens.] Scene mode.
(Picture becomes slightly coarser in response to high sensitivity)
Striping or flicker may appear under lighting such as fluorescent lighting
and LED lighting fixture.
This is characteristic of MOS sensors which serve as the camera’s pickup sensors.
This is not a malfunction.
Brightness or colouring of recorded picture different from real life.
When recording under fluorescent or LED lighting fixture etc., increasing the shutter speed may
introduce slight changes to brightness and colour. These are a result of the characteristics of the
light source and do not indicate a malfunction.
When recording subjects in extremely bright locations or recording under fluorescent lighting, LED
lighting fixture, mercury lamp, sodium lighting etc., the colours and screen brightness may change
or horizontal striping may appear on the screen.
Reddish horizontal streaks appear on the LCD monitor during recording.
This is characteristic of MOS sensors which serve as the camera’s pickup sensors. It appears when
the subject has a bright part. Some unevenness may occur in the surrounding areas, but this is not
a malfunction. It is recorded in motion pictures but is not recorded on still pictures.
It is recommended that you take pictures while taking care not to expose the screen to sunlight or
any other source of strong light.
Motion picture recording stops midway.
Motion pictures can be recorded continuously for up to 29 minutes 59 seconds. Also, motion picture
recorded continuously in [MP4] is up to 4 GB. (In this case, you can continuously record a motion
picture in [FHD] for up to approx. 24 minutes 43 seconds.)
With some cards, access display may appear briefly after recording, and recording may end midway.
If recording stops even when using a card of the recommended speed class (→16), the data writing
speed has dropped. If this happens, we recommend backing up the data on the memory card and
formatting it (→48).
Panorama picture recording stops before finishing.
If the pan motion of the camera is too slow, the camera assumes that the operation has been
aborted and stops recording.
If the pan motion of the camera is too shaky when it is moved toward the recording direction, the
camera stops recording.
To record panorama pictures, pan the camera in a small circular motion parallel to the recording
direction at a speed of approx. 8 seconds per revolution (guideline).
The subject cannot be locked. (AF track fails)
If the colour of the subject is similar to that of its background, AF Tracking may not function. Set the
AF area to those colours specific to the subject by aligning that area with the AF area.
