Tips for preventing blur
If your hands or body move while holding the camera and pressing the shutter button, “Camera shake” occurs.
Camera shake occurs frequently under low-light or slow shutter speed conditions, such as those encountered in
(Night Portrait) or (Night
Scene) mode.
To reduce camera shake, set the self-timer to a 2-second delay and brace your arms against your sides after pressing the shutter button.
Notes
● When [Drive Mode] is set to [Self-timer(Cont)] or [Bracket: Cont.], [Flash Mode] is set to [Flash Off].
● When the battery level is low, or a memory card is full, the burst stops.
Automatic shooting with Self-portrait timer
Point the lens at yourself so that the selected number of faces is reflected in the screen. The shutter operates automatically. Do not move your camera
after the beep sounds.
