You can change how long images are displayed after shots
(= 58).

Movies

Keep your fingers away from the microphone (1) while shooting
movies. Blocking the microphone may prevent audio from being
recorded or may cause the recording to sound muffled.

Avoid touching camera controls other than the movie button when
shooting movies, because sounds made by the camera will be
recorded.

Once movie recording begins, the image display area changes
and subjects are enlarged to allow for correction of significant
camera shake. To shoot subjects at the same size shown before
shooting, set Dynamic IS to [Low] (= 57).

(1)

Audio is recorded in stereo.

During movie recording, lens operating noises from auto focusing
may also be recorded. If you prefer not to record sound, choose
MENU (= 31) ► [

8] tab ► [Sound rec.] ► [Disable].

Digest Movie Playback

Display a still image shot in [

] mode to play the digest movie created

on the same day, or specify the date of the digest movie to play (= 109).

Still Images/Movies

If the camera is turned on while the [

] button is held down,

the camera will no longer sound. To activate sounds again, press
the [

] button and choose [Mute] on the [ 3] tab, and then

choose [Off].

Still Images

A blinking [ ] icon warns that images are more likely to be
blurred by camera shake. In this case, mount the camera on a
tripod or take other measures to keep it still.

If your shots are dark despite the flash firing, move closer to
the subject. For details on the flash range, see “Flash Range”
(= 213).

The subject may be too close if the camera only beeps once
when you press the shutter button halfway. For details on the
range of focus (shooting range), see “Shooting Range” (= 213).

To reduce red-eye and to assist in focusing, the lamp may be lit
when shooting in low-light conditions.

A blinking [ ] icon displayed when you attempt to shoot
indicates that shooting is not possible until the flash has finished
recharging. Shooting can resume as soon as the flash is ready,
so either press the shutter button all the way down and wait, or
release it and press it again.

The shutter sound will not be played when the Sleeping and
Babies (Sleeping) icons (= 39) are displayed.

Although you can shoot again before the shooting screen
is displayed, your previous shot may determine the focus,
brightness, and colors used.
