z This function may not operate correctly
when the camera is pointed straight up or
down. Check that the arrow
is pointing
in the right direction and if it is not, then set
the Auto Rotate function to [Off].
z Even if the Auto Rotate function is set to
[On], the orientation of images downloaded
to a computer will depend upon the
software used to download the images.
When the camera is held vertically to shoot,
the Intelligent Orientation sensor judges the
upper end to be “up” and the lower end to be
“down”. It then regulates the optimal white
balance and exposure for vertical
photography. This function operates
regardless of the on/off status of the Auto
Rotate function.
