LCD Panel
The liquid crystal panel of the monitor screen uses high-precision technology that
provides a pixel yield in excess of 99.99%. This means that some very small number
of pixels may not light or may remain lit at all times. This is due to the characteristics
of the liquid crystal panel, and does not indicate malfunction.
Take test shots
Before shooting your final image, shoot a test shot to ensure that the camera is
recording correctly.

The monitor screen can be tilted upwards up to 180 degrees or downwards up to
55 degrees.
. Tilting the Monitor Screen
As shown in the illustration, you can tilt the monitor screen by opening it from the
bottom or from the top.
• Under factory default settings, the camera will turn on automatically whenever the
monitor screen is tilted. See page 196 for information about configuring the camera
so it does not turn on when the monitor screen is tilted upwards.
• When returning the monitor screen to the back of the camera, take care so you do
not catch your fingers between the top or bottom of the monitor screen and the
camera.
• Do not subject the monitor screen to strong impact. Doing so can damage it.
• Be sure to return the monitor screen to its normal position to the back of the
camera when you are not using it.
• Whenever placing the camera on a tabletop or other surface to shoot, be sure to
pull out the stand to keep it from falling over (page 21).

images from various low angles.
Using the Stand
Your camera has a built-in stand. You can pull out
the stand and keep the camera stable on a tabletop
or other surface while the monitor screen is tilted
upwards 180 degrees. When using the camera on a
tabletop or other surface for landscape (horizontal)
orientation shots, you can adjust the vertical angle of
the camera somewhat by changing how far you pull
out the stand.
• When using the camera on a tabletop or other
surface for portrait (vertical) orientation shots, pull
the stand out as much as possible so the camera
is stable. Pulling the stand out part way in this
case can cause the camera to become unstable
and fall over.
• Even when using the stand to adjust the vertical
angle of the camera while shooting with landscape (horizontal) orientation, take
care to extend the stand far enough to avoid camera instability, which can cause it
to fall over.
• Whenever using the stand, make sure that the location where you place the
camera is stable and relatively level.

indicates battery power is low. Charge the battery as soon as possible.
Recording is not possible when is indicated. Charge the battery immediately.
• The level shown by the battery indicator may change when you switch between the
REC mode and PLAY mode.
• Leaving the camera for about 30 days with no power supplied while the battery is
dead will cause its date and time settings to be cleared. A message telling you to
configure time and date settings will appear the next time you turn on the camera
after restoring power. When this happens, configure date and time settings (page
198).
• See page 234 for information about battery life and number of shots.
Battery Power Conservation Tips
• Entering the “ECO Mode” (page 191) enables low-power operation. Note that lowpower operation decreases monitor screen brightness.
• When you do not need to use the flash, select ? (Flash Off) for the flash setting
(page 56).
• Enable the Auto Power Off (page 195) and the Sleep features (page 195) to protect
against wasting battery power when you forget to turn off the camera.
• Select “Off” for “Continuous AF” (page 124).
Configuring Basic Settings the First Time You Turn On the Camera
The first time you load a battery into the camera, a screen appears for configuring the
display language, date, and time settings. Failure to set the date and time correctly
will cause the wrong date and time data to be recorded with images.
• A screen for language selection will not appear in step 2 of the procedure below if
you purchased a camera intended for the Japanese market. To change the display
language from Japanese in this case, use the procedure under “Specifying the
Display Language (Language)” (page 199). Note that a version of this manual in
the language you select may not be included with a camera intended for the
Japanese market.
• Camera models sold in certain geographic areas may not support display language
selection.

Quick Start Basics
Preparing a Memory Card
Though the camera has built-in memory that can be used to store images and
movies, you probably will want to purchase a commercially available memory card for
greater capacity. The camera does not come with a memory card. Images recorded
while a memory card is loaded are saved to the memory card. When no memory card
is loaded, images are saved to built-in memory.
• For information about memory card capacities, see page 229.
Supported Memory Cards
– SD Memory Card
– SDHC Memory Card
– SDXC Memory Card
Use one of the above types of memory card.
• The above are supported memory card types as of May 2015.
• This camera supports use of SD memory cards of the following types and
capacities: SD memory cards up to 2GB, SDHC memory cards from 2GB up to
32GB, SDXC memory cards from 32GB up to 2TB. Note that the ability to use any
particular card with this camera, even if it satisfies the above capacity and type
requirements, is not guaranteed.
. Memory Card Handling Precautions
Certain types of memory cards can slow down processing speeds. In particular, highquality movies may not be able to be stored correctly. A slow memory card can take
too much time to record data and result in breaks in the image and/or audio during
playback. When this happens a yellow “Y” indicator will appear on the monitor
screen.
