> Set [COLOR MODE] to [NATURAL]. (P65)
> Take pictures in bright places.
•
Has [HIGH SENS.] or [HI-SPEED BURST] in the scene mode been set? If so, the resolution of
the recorded picture decreases slightly because of high sensitivity processing, but this is not a
malfunction.
•
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.
•
Are you using a MultiMediaCard? This unit does not support MultiMediaCards.
> When you set the picture quality to [
], [
] or [
], we recommend using a
high-speed card with “10MB/s” or greater displayed on the package.
•
Depending on the type of the card, recording may stop in the middle.
•
If the subject has different colours as the periphery, set the AF area to those colours specific to
the subject by aligning that area with the AF area. (P63)
•
It is possible that the subject may be warped slightly, or the borders get coloured, depending on
the zoom magnification, due to the characteristics of the lens. Also, the peripherals of the
image might look warped because the perspective is enhanced when the wide angle is used.
This is not a malfunction.
•
The LCD monitor turns off and the status indicator lights when [AUTO LCD OFF] (P21) is
selected for the [ECONOMY] mode.
[This does not happen when using the AC adaptor (DMW-AC5G; optional).]
If the remaining battery power is low, it may take longer for the flash to be charged, and the
time during which the LCD monitor is turned off may become longer.
The brightness or the hue of the recorded picture is different from the actual
scene.
A reddish vertical line (smear) appears on the LCD monitor during
picture-taking.
•
This is a characteristic of CCDs, and it appears when the subject has a
bright part. Some unevenness may occur in the surrounding areas, but
this is not a malfunction.
It is recorded in motion pictures but is not recorded on still pictures.
•
It is recommended that you take pictures while taking care not to expose
the screen to sunlight or any other source of strong light.
Motion picture recording stops in the middle.
The subject cannot be locked. (AF track fails)
Lens
Recorded image may be warped, or nonexistent colour is surrounding the
subject.
