Tips for taking good pictures
• Do not cover the flash, the AF assist lamp A or the microphone B with your fingers or
other objects.
• Hold the camera gently with both hands, keep your arms still at your side and stand with your
feet slightly apart.
• Be careful not to move the camera when you press the shutter button.
∫ Direction Detection Function
Pictures recorded with the camera held vertically are played back vertically (rotated). (Only
when [ROTATE DISP.] (P154) is set to [ON])
•
The Direction Detection Function may not operate correctly if recording is performed with the
camera aimed up or down.
• You can only use the Direction Detection Function when using a compatible lens.
(Refer to the catalogue, website etc. for compatible lenses.)
• You cannot record 3D pictures in vertical orientation.
A lens which supports the Direction Detection Function is required.
