turns off if there is no operation when the camera is turned on (when the lens is extended
and the monitor is on). No picture is taken even if the shutter button is fully pressed in
this mode. Operate the zoom button or other buttons to restore the camera from sleep
mode before taking a picture. If the camera is left for 15 minutes, it automatically turns
off (the lens retracts and the monitor turns off). Press o to turn the camera on.

Shooting tips
Focusing on the subject
There are several ways to focus, depending on the subject.
When the subject is not in the center of the frame
• Place the subject in the center of the frame, lock the focus on the subject, and then
recompose your picture.
• Set [AF MODE] to [iESP].
g “AF MODE Changing the focusing area” (P. 21)
The subject is moving quickly
• Focus the camera on a point roughly the same distance away as the subject you want
to shoot (by pressing the shutter button halfway), and then recompose your picture and
wait for the subject to enter the frame.
Subjects that are difficult to focus on
• Under certain types of conditions, it is difficult to focus using auto focus. The green lamp

and set as follows:
g “ISO Changing the ISO sensitivity” (P. 20)
The picture is too grainy
There are several factors that can cause the picture to appear grainy.
Using the digital zoom to take close-up pictures
• With the digital zoom, part of the image is cropped and enlarged. The greater the
magnification, the grainier the picture appears.
g “DIGITAL ZOOM Zooming in on your subject” (P. 20)
Increasing the ISO sensitivity
• When you increase the [ISO] setting, “noise”, which appears as spots of unwanted color
or unevenness in the color, can be introduced and give the picture a grainy appearance.
This camera is equipped with a function to allow shooting at high sensitivity while
suppressing noise; however, increasing the ISO sensitivity creates grainier pictures than
when using a lower sensitivity.
g “ISO Changing the ISO sensitivity” (P. 20)
Taking pictures with the correct color
• The reason why there are differences between the colors in a picture and the actual
colors taken and the actual color is the light source illuminating the subject. [WB] is the
function that allows the camera to determine the correct colors. Normally, the [AUTO]
setting provides the optimal white balance, but depending on the subject, it may be better
to experiment with changing the [WB] setting.
• When the subject is in the shade on a sunny day
• When the subject is illuminated by both natural light and indoor lighting, such as when
near a window
• When there is no white in the center of the frame
g “WB Adjusting the color of a picture” (P. 19)
Getting to know your camera better
Taking pictures of a white beach or snow scene
• Take pictures with K in s mode. Suitable for taking pictures on a sunny day at the
beach or in the snow.
g “s (Scene) Shooting pictures by selecting a scene according to the
situation” (P. 19)
• Often, bright subjects (such as snow) turn out darker than their natural colors. Adjust [F]
toward [+] to make these subjects closer to their real shades. Conversely, when you are
shooting dark subjects, it can be effective to adjust toward the [–]. Sometimes, using the
flash may not produce the brightness (exposure) that was intended.
g “1 F button Changing picture brightness” (P. 14)
EN 53
Page 54
Taking pictures of a subject against backlight
• With [ESP/n] set to [n], the picture can be taken based on the brightness at the
center of the monitor without being affected by the light in the background.
g “ESP/n Changing the area for measuring the brightness of a subject” (P. 20)
• Set the flash to [#] to activate fill-in-flash. You can shoot a subject against backlight without
the face of the subject appearing dark. [#] is effective for shooting against backlight and
under fluorescent and other artificial lightening.
g “3# button Flash shooting” (P. 13)
Additional shooting tips and information
Increasing the number of pictures that can be taken
There are two ways to record the pictures you take with this camera.
Recording pictures to the internal memory
• Pictures are recorded to the internal memory, and when the number of storable still
pictures reaches 0, you must connect the camera to a computer to download the
pictures, and then erase the pictures from the internal memory.
Using a card (optional)
• Pictures are recorded to the card when inserted in the camera. When the card is full, you
download the pictures to a computer, and then either erase the pictures from the card or
use a new card.
• Pictures are not recorded to the internal memory when a card is inserted in the camera.
Pictures in the internal memory can be copied to the card using the [BACKUP] function.

Monitor
• Do not push the monitor forcibly; otherwise the image may become vague, resulting in a
playback mode failure or damage to the monitor.
• A strip of light may appear on the top/bottom of the monitor, but this is not a malfunction.
• When a subject is viewed diagonally in the camera, the edges may appear zigzagged on the
monitor. This is not a malfunction; it will be less noticeable in playback mode.
• In places subject to low temperatures, the monitor may take a long time to turn on or its color
may change temporarily. When using the camera in extremely cold places, it is a good idea
to occasionally place it in a warm place. A monitor exhibiting poor performance due to low
temperatures will recover in normal temperatures.
• The LCD used for the monitor is made with high-precision technology. However, black spots
or bright spots of light may appear constantly on the Monitor. Due to its characteristics or the
angle at which you are viewing the monitor, the spot may not be uniform in color and
brightness. This is not a malfunction.
