NR slow shutter
The NR slow shutter mode reduces noise
from recorded images, providing clear
images. When using certain shutter speeds*,
the camera automatically works the NR slow
shutter mode and “NR” is indicated next to
the shutter speed indicator.
* When [ISO] is [800]:
Shutter speeds of 1/25 second or slower
When [ISO] is other than [800]:
Shutter speeds of 1/6 second or slower

Processing
Finally, when
“Processing”
disappears, the image
has been recorded.
• To eliminate the effects of vibration, use of
a tripod is recommended.
• When a slow shutter speed is set, the
processing may take some time. This is
because the camera works to remove noise
during the time set by the shutter speed
setting.
Shooting techniques
When shooting a moving person, car, or
spindrift, etc., using the high shutter speed,
you can express moment that is beyond what
the human eye can see.
When shooting a subject such as the fl ow
of a river at a slower shutter speed, you can
create an image that captures the subject’s
fl owing movement. In such cases, use of a
tripod is recommended to prevent camera
shake.
• When you hand-hold the camera, adjust
the shutter speed in a range where
(Vibration warning indicator) is not
indicated.
Shooting with
aperture priority
mode
You can adjust the amount of light that
passes through the lens. If you open the
aperture (a smaller F-number), the amount
of light allowed into the lens increases and
the in-focus range becomes narrower. Only
the main subject is then in focus. When the
aperture is closed (a larger F-number), the
amount of light decreases and the in-focus
range becomes wider. The whole image is
sharpened.
The shutter speed is automatically adjusted
to obtain correct exposure according to the
brightness of the subject.
