Recording (continued)
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]. (→97)
→ Take pictures in brighter locations.
Camera set to [High Sens.] Scene mode, or [Burst] in [Rec] menu to or .
(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 coloring 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 color. 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 colors 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 the MOS sensors, which serve as the camera's pickup sensors. The streaks
appear 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.
With some cards, access display may appear briefly after recording, and recording may end midway.
Use a card of SD Speed “Class 4” or higher for recording motion pictures. If recording stops even
when using a card of the recommended speed class, the data writing speed has dropped. If this
happens, we recommend backing up the data on the memory card and formatting it (→53).
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 color of the subject is similar to that of its background, AF Tracking may not function. Set the
AF lock to the colors specific to the subject.
