# Cautions

• When using a camera with a CMOS image sensor, moving objects may appear distorted due to the rolling shutter phenomenon. This is a physical phenomenon whereby distortion occurs in the ﬁ lmed image when shooting a fast-moving subject or due to camera shaking. In particular, this phenomenon becomes more noticeable when using a long focal length.

• If the camera is used for extended periods, the temperature of the image pickup device will rise and noise and colored fog may appear in images. Turn off the camera for a short time. Noise and colored fog may also appear in images recorded at high ISO sensitivity settings. If the temperature rises further, the camera will turn off automatically.

 Taking photographs during movie recording

• Press the shutter button during movie recording to pause movie recording and take a photograph. Movie recording restarts after the photograph is taken. Press the R button to end recording. Three ﬁ les will be recorded to the memory card: the movie footage preceding the photograph, the photograph itself, and the movie footage following the photograph.

• Only one photograph can be taken at a time during movie recording; the self-timer and ﬂ ash cannot be used.

# Cautions

• Image size and quality for photographs are independent of movie frame size.

• The autofocus and metering used in movie mode may differ from that used to take photographs.

• The R button cannot be used to record movies in the following instances:

Multiple exposure (still photography also ends.)/shutter button pressed halfway/during bulb or time photography/sequential shooting/Panorama/3D/time lapse shooting

# Cautions

• ISO sensitivity can be set to a value up to ISO 1600 for live bulb and live time photography.

• To reduce camera blur during long exposures, mount the camera on a tripod and use a remote cable (P. 123).

• The following features are not available during long exposures:

Sequential shooting/self-timer shooting/AE bracket shooting/image stabilizer/ ﬂ ash bracketing/multiple exposure* * An option other than [Off] is selected for [Live BULB] or [Live TIME].

Noise in images

While shooting at slow shutter speeds, noise may appear on screen. These phenomena occur when the temperature rises in the image pickup device or image pickup device internal drive circuit, causing current to be generated in those sections of the image pickup device that are not normally exposed to light. This can also occur when shooting with a high ISO setting in a high-temperature environment. To reduce this noise, the camera activates the noise reduction function. g [Noise Reduct.] (P. 79)

Using movie mode

# Cautions

• The frame rate will drop slightly during recording.

• The 2 effects cannot be applied simultaneously.

• Use a memory card with an SD speed class of 6 or better. Movie recording may end unexpectedly if a slower card is used.

• Taking a photograph during movie recording cancels the effect; the effect does not appear in the photograph.

• [!/#!(Red-eye reduction ﬂ ash)] may not work effectively under some shooting conditions.

• When the ﬂ ash ﬁ res, the shutter speed is set to 1/320 sec. or slower. When shooting a subject against a bright background with the ﬁ ll-in ﬂ ash, the background may be overexposed.

The ﬂ ash ﬁ res automatically in low light or backlight conditions.

This function allows you to reduce the red-eye phenomenon. In S and M modes, the ﬂ ash always ﬁ res.

Slow shutter speeds are used to brighten dimly-lit backgrounds.

• If a face is detected, it will be indicated by a white border.

Press the shutter button halfway to focus.

• When the camera focuses on the face in the white border, the border will turn green.

# Cautions

• Face priority applies only to the ﬁ rst shot in each sequence taken during sequential shooting.

• Depending on the subject and the art ﬁ lter setting, the camera may not be able to correctly detect the face.

• When set to [p (Digital ESP metering)], metering is performed with priority given to faces.

$ Notes

• Face priority is also available in [MF]. Faces detected by the camera are indicated by white frames.

You can zoom in on a portion of the frame when adjusting focus. Choosing a high zoom ratio allows you to use autofocus to focus on a smaller area than is normally covered by the AF target. You can also position the focus target more precisely.

$ Notes

• To cancel the activated self-timer, press the jY (G) button.

• In [S-AF] and [MF] focus modes, focus and exposure will be ﬁ xed at the values for the ﬁ rst frame in each sequence.

# Cautions

• During sequential shooting, if the battery check blinks due to low battery, the camera stops shooting and starts saving the pictures you have taken on the card. The camera may not save all of the pictures depending on how much battery power remains.

• Fix the camera securely on a tripod for self-timer shooting.

• If you stand in front of the camera to press the shutter button halfway when using the selftimer, the photograph may be out of focus.

Basic operations

Adjusting color (white balance)

White balance (WB) ensures that white objects in images recorded by the camera appear white. [AUTO] is suitable in most circumstances, but other values can be selected according to the light source when [AUTO] fails to produce the desired results or you wish to introduce a deliberate color cast into your images.

One-touch white balance

Measure white balance by framing a piece of paper or other white object under the lighting that will be used in the ﬁ nal photograph. This is useful when shooting a subject under natural light, as well as under various light sources with different color temperatures.

Select [P] or [Q] (one-touch white balance 1 or 2) and press the INFO

button.

Photograph a piece of colorless (white or gray) paper.

• Frame the object so that it ﬁ lls the display and no shadows fall it.

• The one-touch white balance screen appears.

Select [Yes] and press Q.

• The new value is saved as a preset white balance option.

• The new value is stored until one-touch white balance is measured again. Turning the power off does not erase the data.

% Tips

• If the subject is too bright or too dark or visibly tinted, the message [WB NG Retry] will be displayed and no value will be recorded. Correct the problem and repeat the process from Step 1.

ISO sensitivity

Increasing ISO sensitivity increases noise (graininess) but allows photographs to be taken when lighting is poor. The setting recommended in most situations is [AUTO], which starts at ISO 200 — a value that balances noise and dynamic range — and then adjusts ISO sensitivity according to shooting conditions.

Set the lever to 2, and turn the sub-dial to select items.

Choosing a focal length (Micro Four Thirds/Four Thirds System lenses excluded)

Use focal length information to reduce camera shake when shooting with lenses that are not Micro Four Thirds or Four Thirds system lenses.

• Select [Image Stabilizer], press the INFO button, use HI to select a focal length, and

press Q.

• Choose a focal length between 8 mm and 1000 mm.

• Choose the value that most closely matches to the one that is printed on the lens.

# Cautions

• The image stabilizer cannot correct excessive camera shake or camera shake that occurs when the shutter speed is set to the slowest speed. In these cases, it is recommended that you use a tripod.

• When using a tripod, set [Image Stabilizer] to [OFF].

• When using a lens with an image stabilization function switch, priority is given to the lens side setting.

• When priority is being given to the lens side image stabilization and the camera side is set to [S-IS-AUTO], [S-IS1] is used instead of [S-IS-AUTO].

• You may notice an operating sound or vibration when the image stabilizer is activated.

# Cautions

• When recording a movie, you cannot change the settings for exposure compensation, aperture value, and shutter speed.

• If [Image Stabilizer] is activated while recording a movie, the recorded image is enlarged slightly.

• Stabilization is not possible when the camera shake is excessive.

• When the inside of the camera becomes hot, shooting is automatically stopped to protect the camera.

• With some art ﬁ lters, [C-AF] operation is limited.

• Cards with an SD speed class of 6 or above are recommended for movie recording.

Setting the image aspect

You can change the aspect ratio (horizontal-to-vertical ratio) when taking pictures. Depending on your preference, you can set the aspect ratio to [4:3] (standard), [16:9], [3:2], [1:1], or [3:4].

Display the live control and select the aspect ratio item using FG.

Use HI to select an aspect ratio and press Q.

# Cautions

• JPEG images are cropped to the selected aspect ratio; RAW images, however, are not cropped but are instead saved with information on the selected aspect ratio.
