perform as expected.

- If the subject is highly reflective or shiny.
- If the subject is moving at high speed.

● The available recording time may vary depending on shooting conditions and
camera settings.
● When either the Flash Off or Slow synchro mode is selected in a low lighting
condition, the camera shake warning indicator ( ) may appear on the
LCD monitor. In this case, use a tripod, support the camera on a solid surface
or change to flash shot mode.
● Shooting against the light :
It is best to take pictures with the sun in the background. Taking pictures
against the sun may make the picture come out dark. To take a picture against
the light, please use the [Backlight] in scene shooting mode (see page
46), fill-in flash (see page 32 ~ 33), spot metering (see page 36), exposure
compensation (see page 43) or ACB (see page 44) function.
