Though the camera has built-in memory, its capacity is small. To shoot a large
number of images or long movies, you will need to use a commercially available
memory card. When no memory card is loaded, images are saved to built-in memory.
For information about memory card capacities, see page 218.
Your camera supports use of the following types of SD memory
cards.
SD Memory Card (Up to 2GB)
SDHC Memory Card (2GB to 32GB)
SDXC Memory Card (32GB to 2TB)
The above are supported memory card types as of January 2015.
Values in parentheses are specification values.
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, high-
quality 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

Operation
Never open the battery cover while the back lamp is flashing green. Doing so can
result in the image you just shot being saved incorrectly, damage to other images
stored in memory, malfunction of the camera, etc.
If unwanted light is shining onto the lens, shade the lens with your hand when
shooting an image.
Monitor Screen when Shooting Snapshots
Subject brightness conditions can cause monitor screen response to slow and can
cause digital noise in the monitor screen image.
The image that appears on the monitor screen is for image composition. The actual
image will be recorded at the quality set for the image quality setting (page 112).
Shooting Indoors under Fluorescent Lighting
Minute flickering of fluorescent lighting can affect the brightness or color of an
image.
Other Precautions
The slower the shutter speed, the greater the possibility that noticeable noise will
be generated in an image. Because of this, the camera automatically performs a
noise reduction at slow shutter speeds. The noise reduction process causes it to
take longer to record images at lower shutter speeds. The shutter speeds for which
noise reduction is performed depend on the camera setup and shooting conditions.
A noise reduction process is performed when ISO sensitivity is set to a high value.
This can cause the camera to take relatively longer to be ready to shoot again after
you press the shutter button. Do not perform any key operation while the image
recording operation is in progress.
Due to the characteristics of the imaging element used by the camera, very fast
moving objects in an image may appear distorted.

NOTE
An Auto Macro feature detects how far the subject is from the lens and
automatically selects either Macro Focus or Auto Focus accordingly.
Use of the flash together with Macro Focus can cause the light of the flash to
become blocked, which may result in unwanted lens shadows in your image.
Whenever you perform an optical zoom operation while shooting with Auto Focus,
Macro Focus, or Manual Focus, a value will appear on the monitor screen to tell
you the focus range, as shown below. Note that the focus range is displayed
including the Auto Macro range only when shooting with Auto Focus.

2. Select the setting you want and then press [SET].
NOTE
While “Auto” is selected, Anti Shake corrects for subject movement only (page

Since higher ISO sensitivity values tend to result in digital noise in images, the
camera performs a noise filtering process. Because of this, it may take relatively
longer for the camera to finish recording an image after it is shot. You will not be
able to perform any key operation while image recording is in progress.
In the S (Shutter Speed AE) mode, ISO sensitivity always operates according to its

IMPORTANT!
Foreign matter on the flash window can react with the light of the flash, producing
some smoke and abnormal odor. Though this does not indicate malfunction, oil
from your fingers and other foreign matter when left on the flash window can
become difficult to clean off later. Because of this, you should make it a regular
habit to wipe the window clean regularly with a soft, dry cloth.
NOTE
Take care so your fingers and the strap do not block the flash.
The desired effect may not be obtained when the subject is too far away or too
close.
Flash charging time (page 222) depends on operating conditions (battery
condition, ambient temperature, etc.).
Shooting with flash turned off when lighting is dim results in a slow shutter speed,
which can cause image blur due to camera movement. Under such conditions,
secure the camera with a tripod, etc.
With red eye reduction, the flash is fired automatically in accordance with
exposure. It does not fire in areas where lighting is bright.
The presence of outdoor sunlight, fluorescent lighting, or some other light source
can cause abnormal image colors.
Select ?(Flash Off) for the flash setting when shooting in areas where flash
photography is prohibited.
The flash > ¥(Auto Flash) and (Red Eye Reduction) flash modes are not
supported while A, S, or M is selected for the recording mode. If you want the flash
to fire, select <(Flash On) as the flash mode.
Red-eye Reduction
Using the flash to shoot at night or in a dimly lit room can cause red spots inside the
eyes of people who are in the image. This is caused when the light from the flash
reflects off of the retina of the eye. When red-eye reduction is selected as the flash
mode, the camera fires a pre-flash to cause the irises in the eyes of any people in the
image to close, which reduces the chance of red eye.
Note the following important points when using red-eye reduction.
Red-eye reduction does not work unless the people in the image are looking
directly at the camera (flash).
Red-eye reduction may not work very well if the subjects are located far away from
the camera.

72 Snapshot Tutorial
Triple Shot shoots a burst of three images and stores them in memory. This feature is
great for making sure you don’t miss those special moments when kids are around.
1. Align the mode dial with [D] (Triple Shot).
2. Point the camera at the subject and then half-press the shutter button.
The camera will start pre-recording images at this time.
If you release the half-pressed shutter button before pressing it the rest of the
way down, all of the images currently in the pre-record buffer will be deleted.
3. Press the shutter button all the way down to record.
This will record three images: one of the action before the shutter button is fully
pressed plus two real-time images.
Pressing the shutter button all the way without first half-pressing it will result in
only two images being recorded.

Each movie can be up to 29 minutes long. Movie recording stops automatically
after 29 minutes of recording. Movie recording also will stop automatically if
memory becomes full before you stop movie recording by pressing [0] (Movie)
again.
The movie is recorded in MOV format (page 170). The camera does not
support conversion to a different movie format.
Recording Movies with Premium Auto Pro
When Premium Auto Pro is enabled (page 33), the
camera automatically make judgments about the
subject, shooting conditions, and other parameters. The
result is higher quality images than those produced by
Program Auto recording. The shooting environment detected by the camera is
displayed at the bottom of the REC mode screen.
Premium Auto Pro is enabled for FHD movies and STD movies only.
Using Premium Auto Pro uses up the battery charge more quickly than using
Program Auto recording.
Shooting with BEST SHOT
With BEST SHOT (page 86), you can select the sample scene that matches the type
of movie you are trying to shoot and the camera will change its setup accordingly, for
beautiful movies every time.
Minimizing the Effects of Camera Movement during Movie Recording
You can use Anti Shake (page 110) to configure the camera to minimize the effects of
camera movement during FHD and STD movie recording. Note that Anti Shake
cannot be used with HDR Art Movie and that Anti Shake does not prevent image blur
due to subject movement.
75 Recording Movies
Your camera has built-in microphones that can be used to record audio (stereo)
during movie recording.
Your camera has a function to reduce wind noise (Wind Noise Cut) when recording
movies (page 116).
.Recording Precautions
The camera also records audio. Note the following points
when shooting a movie.
Take care that the microphones are not blocked by your
fingers, etc.
Good audio recording results are not possible when the
camera is too far away from what you are trying to
record.
Performing a zoom operation while shooting can cause zoom and/or auto focus
noise to be in the audio recording.
Operating camera buttons while shooting can cause button noise to be picked
up in the audio.
When shooting with the “HS” movie quality at a frame rate setting of
“30-120 fps” or “30-240 fps”, audio is recorded only while the camera is shooting at
30 fps. Audio is not recorded at any other frame rates (page 113).
IMPORTANT!
Spending a long time using movie recording will cause the camera to become
slightly warm to the touch. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.
Shooting movies for long periods in areas where temperature is relatively high can
cause digital noise (dots of light) to appear in the movie image. A rise in the
camera’s internal temperature also may force movie recording to stop
automatically. If this happens, stop recording and allow the camera to cool down,
which should cause normal operation to resume.
Use of the camera’s built-in memory or certain types of memory cards can slow
down processing speeds. In particular, high-quality 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.

NOTE
Zoom operations are supported during movie recording (page 55). Zoom is
disabled during high speed movie recording. To use zoom for high speed movie
recording, perform the zoom operation before you press [0] (Movie) to start
recording.
Both Single SR Zoom (page 58) and Multi SR Zoom (page 59) are disabled during
movie recording.
The effects of camera movement in an image become more pronounced when you
shoot close up or with a large zoom factor. Because of this, use of a tripod is
recommended under these conditions.
Except for High Speed Movie, Continuous AF (page 109) is performed during
movie recording while “AF” (Auto Focus) or “Macro” is selected for the “Focus”
setting.
Face Detection is disabled during normal FHD and STD, and high speed movie
recording. Face Detection is enabled when shooting movies with Premium Auto
Pro (FHD and STD).
The following functions do not support movie recording.
Triple Shot, Multi SR Zoom, some BEST SHOT scenes
The A, S, and M recording modes are not supported when shooting a movie, or
when using the “Prerecord (Movie)” BEST SHOT scene. In these cases, the
recording mode is always P(Program Auto).

73).
Press [0] (Movie) to start and stop recording.
During High Speed Movie recording (HS120, HS240, HS480, HS1000), focus
is fixed at the position where it was when recording started. To focus an image,
half-press the shutter button for Auto Focus or focus manually before you press
[0] (Movie) to start recording.
Continuous AF is operational when recording at 30 fps with “HS30-120” or
“HS30-240”. However, focus becomes fixed whenever you switch to 120 fps or
240 fps.
When “HS30-120” or “HS30-240” is selected as the frame rate, recording
always starts with a frame rate of 30 fps. You can switch the frame rate
between 30 fps and 120 fps or between 30 fps and 240 fps only while recording
is in progress. Press [4 6], [ ], or [SET] to switch speeds. Audio is recorded
only while shooting at a 30 fps.
NOTE
The higher the frame rate (speed), the more lighting is required when shooting.
When shooting a high speed movie, shoot in a well-lit environment.
When recording certain types of movies, the image that appears on the monitor
screen may be smaller than normal. When recording a high speed movie, there are
black bands along the top, bottom, left, and right of the screen.
When recording a high speed movie, light source flicker can cause horizontal
bands to appear in the image. This does not indicate malfunction of the camera.
Monitor screen content switching is disabled during high speed movie recording.
