• You can repeatedly retry AF/AE lock 
before pressing the shutter button fully.
∫ Direction detection function
Pictures recorded with the camera held 
vertically are played back vertically 
(rotated). (Only when [ROTATE DISP.] 
(P81) is set to [ON])
• Pictures may not be displayed vertically if 
they were taken with the camera aimed up 
or down.
• Motion pictures taken with the camera 
held vertically are not displayed vertically.
∫ Preventing jitter (camera shake)
• Be careful of jittering when pressing the 
shutter button.
• If jitter could occur because of slow 
shutter speed, the jitter alert 
A appears.
• When the jitter alert appears, we 
recommend using a tripod. If you cannot 
use a tripod, be careful how you hold the 
camera. The use of the self-timer prevents 
jittering caused by pressing the shutter 
button when you are using a tripod (P41).
• Shutter speed will be slower particularly in 
the following cases. Keep the camera still 
from the moment the shutter button is 
pressed until the picture appears on the 
screen. We recommend using a tripod.
