GETTING THE MOST OUT OF YOUR CAMERA
As well as photographing still images and recording video clips, your digital movie camera can even capture still images while you’re recording a video clip. In one compact body you get sophisticated but easy-to-use features such as the “SIMPLE mode” that gives you beautiful images with a minimum of setup, an image stabilizer that suppresses the effects of camera shake during shooting, “face chaser” for perfectly focused faces, and more.
SIMPLE mode for quick-and-easy operation (page 36)
Select from two operating modes: the “SIMPLE mode” for users new to the camera, and the “NORMAL mode” for full use of all the camera’s many features and functions.

Movie image stabilizer for sharp pictures (page 90)
Your camera can compensate for the camera shake that results in blurry images when you try to capture a fast-moving subject or zoom in on a subject.
Sharp face shots (page 100)
Your camera is equipped with a face recognition feature which detects the subject’s face even when slightly lit from behind or in dim surroundings and automatically adjusts the focus and brightness to compensate. Now those otherwise perfect photos that are marred by shadowed faces can be minimized.
