Q&A Troubleshooting (Continued) Recording (continued) Brightness or coloring of recorded picture different from real life. ● Taking pictures under fluorescent lighting may require a faster shutter speed and result in slightly changed brightness or coloring, but this is not a fault. Red banding may appear on the LCD monitor or part or the entire screen may have a reddish tint, when recording or pressing the shutter button halfway. ● This is a characteristic of CCD and may appear if subject contains brighter areas. Some blurring may occur around these areas, but this is not a fault. This will be recorded in motion pictures, but not in still pictures. ● We recommend keeping the screen away from strong light sources such as sunlight when taking pictures. Motion picture recording stops midway. ● With some cards, access display may appear briefly after recording, and recording may end midway. ● Using a card of SD speed 'Class 4'∗ or above is recommended for recording motion pictures in [AVCHD Lite(GPS REC)]/[AVCHD Lite]. Using a card of SD speed 'Class 6'∗ or above is recommended for recording motion pictures in 'MOTION JPEG'. ∗ The SD speed class is a speed rating for continuous writing. ● If recording stops even when using the card above, the data writing speed is low. We recommend backing up the data on the memory card and reformatting it (→28). The subject cannot be locked. (AF track fails) ● If the subject has different colors as the periphery, set the AF area to those colors specific to the subject by aligning that area with the AF area. (→100) LCD monitor LCD monitor dims during motion picture recording. ● LCD monitor may dim if continuing motion picture recording for long periods. Brightness is unstable. ● Aperture value is set while shutter button is pressed halfway. (Does not affect recorded picture.)
