Choosing aperture (A: Aperture-Priority AE) In this mode, you choose the aperture (f/-number) and the camera automatically sets the shutter speed for optimal exposure according to subject brightness. Lower aperture values (larger apertures) reduce the depth of the area that appears to be in focus (depth of field), blurring the background. Higher aperture values (smaller apertures) increase the depth of the area that appears to be in focus in front of and behind the subject. Lower aperture values… F4.

$ Noise 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.

Designated External Flash Units When using a flash unit designed for use with the camera, you can choose the flash mode using camera controls and take pictures with the flash. See the documentation provided with the flash unit for information on flash features and their use. Choose a flash unit to suit your needs, taking into consideration such factors as the output required and whether the unit supports macro photography.
Wireless remote control flash photography Wireless flash photography is available with compatible flash units that support wireless remote control (RC). The remote flash units are controlled via a unit mounted on the camera hot shoe. Settings can be adjusted separately for the camera-mounted unit and units in up to three other groups. RC mode must be enabled on both the master and remote flash units. Enabling RC Mode 1 Set the remote flash units to RC mode and place them as desired.

8 Information Cleaning and storing the camera Cleaning the camera Turn off the camera and remove the battery before cleaning the camera. • Do not use strong solvents such as benzene or alcohol, or a chemically treated cloth. Exterior: • Wipe gently with a soft cloth. If the camera is very dirty, soak the cloth in mild soapy water and wring well. Wipe the camera with the damp cloth and then dry it with a dry cloth. If you have used the camera at the beach, use a cloth soaked in clean water and well wrung.
Cleaning and checking the image pickup device This camera incorporates a dust reduction function to keep dust from getting on the image pickup device and to remove any dust or dirt from the image pickup device surface with ultrasonic vibrations. The dust reduction function operates when the camera is turned on. The dust reduction function operates at the same time as the pixel mapping, which checks the image pickup device and image processing circuitry.
Shooting tips and information The camera does not turn on even when a battery is loaded The battery is not fully charged • Charge the battery with the charger. The battery is temporarily unable to function because of the cold • Battery performance drops at low temperatures. Remove the battery and warm it by putting it in your pocket for a while.
Noise reduction is activated • When shooting night scenes, shutter speeds are slower and noise tends to appear in images. The camera activates the noise-reduction process after shooting at slow shutter speeds. During which, shooting is not allowed. You can set [Noise Reduct.] to [Off]. g [Noise Reduct.] (P. 169) The number of AF targets is reduced The size and number of the AF target changes depending on the [Digital Tele-converter] (P. 130), [Image Aspect] (P. 87), and group target (P. 65) settings.
The subject appears distorted The following functions use an electronic shutter: movie recording (P. 58), silent mode (P. 74), Pro Capture shooting (P. 74), High Res Shot (P. 76), focus bracketing (P. 134), focus stacking (P. 134) This may cause distortion if the subject is moving rapidly or the camera is moved abruptly. Avoid moving the camera abruptly during shooting or use standard sequential shooting.
