• Is the subject beyond the focus range of

the camera? (P22, 42)

• Have you taken a picture with jitter?

6: The recorded picture is blurred. The

optical image stabilizer is not
effective.
• The shutter speed will become slower

and the optical image stabilizer function
may not work properly when taking
pictures especially in dark places. In
this case, we recommend holding the
camera firmly with both hands when
taking pictures. (P22) When
[SLOW SHUTTER] (P63) is set, we
recommend using a tripod and the
self-timer (P39) when taking pictures.

7: The recorded picture looks rough.

Noise appears on the picture.
• Is the ISO sensitivity high or the shutter

speed slow?
(ISO sensitivity is set to [AUTO] when
the camera is shipped. Therefore, when
taking pictures indoors etc. the ISO
sensitivity increases.)
– Decrease the ISO sensitivity. (P58)
– Set [COL.MODE] to [NATURAL].

(P63)

– Take pictures in bright places.

• In [HIGH SENS.] (P47) in scene mode,

the resolution of the recorded picture
decreases slightly because of high
sensitivity processing.
This is not a malfunction.

8: The brightness or the hue of the

recorded picture is different from that
of actual scene.
• If recording under fluorescent light, the

brightness or the hue may change
slightly when the shutter speed
becomes fast. This occurs due to the
characteristics of fluorescent light. It is
not a malfunction.

9: A vertical reddish line appears on the

LCD monitor while the shutter button
is pressed halfway or recording
motion pictures.
• This is a phenomenon

called smear. It is a
characteristic of CCD
and appears when the
subject has a bright
part. Black or green
vertical lines may also appear or
uneven colours may appear around the
smear. This is not a malfunction. It is
recorded in motion pictures but is not
recorded on still pictures.

10: Motion picture recording stops in

the middle.

• Are you using a MultiMediaCard?

– This unit does not support

MultiMediaCards.

• When you set the picture quality to

[30fpsVGA] or [30fps16:9], we
recommend using a High Speed SD
Memory Card with “10MB/s” or greater
displayed on the package.

• Depending on the type of SD Memory

Card or SDHC Memory Card, recording
may stop in the middle.

LCD monitor
1: The LCD monitor is turned off

sometimes when the camera is turned
on.
• Is the LCD monitor turned off soon after

you take pictures with the flash?
– While the flash is being charged, the

LCD monitor is turned off.

2: The LCD monitor becomes darker or

brighter for a moment.
• This phenomenon appears when you

press the shutter button halfway to set
the aperture value and does not affect
the recorded pictures.
