J Shoot under water
Use when taking pictures underwater.
• The closest distance at which the camera can focus varies
depending on the zoom position. When the zoom is set to a
position where the zoom indicator glows green, the camera can
focus on subjects as close as about 20 cm (7.9 in.) from the front
of the protective glass.
When the zoom is at the maximum wide-angle position, the
camera can focus on subjects as close as about 5 cm (2 in.) from the front of the protective
glass.
• The camera focuses on the subject in the center of the frame.
• Digital zoom cannot be used.
• See “<Important> Shockproof, Waterproof, Dustproof, Condensation” (
A xv) for more
information about using the camera underwater.
• The camera focuses even when the shutter-release button is not pressed halfway. You may hear
the sound of the camera focusing.
• The flash may be unable to light the entire subject at distances of less than 30 cm (1 ft).
I Take a series of pictures
The camera captures a series of still images that allow you to
clearly see detailed movements in a moving subject.
• When the camera detects a human face, it focuses on that face
( A 56).
• If no faces are detected, the camera focuses on the subject in
the center of the frame.
• Press and hold the shutter-release button all the way to capture
images continuously. Up to 4 pictures are shot at a rate of about 1.5 frames per second (fps)
(when Choose a size > Photos is set to D Large (10 megapixels)).
• Focus, exposure, and hue are fixed at the values determined with the first image in each series.
• The frame rate with continuous shooting may vary depending upon the current Photos
setting, the memory card used, or shooting condition.
