Before using your camera
Trial recording
Before you record one-time events, you may want
to make a trial recording to make sure that the
camera is working correctly.
No compensation for contents of the
recording
Contents of the recording cannot be compensated
for if recording or playback is not possible due to
a malfunction of your camera or recording media,
etc.
Back up recommendation
To avoid the potential risk of data loss, always
copy (back up) data to a disk.
Notes on image data compatibility
• This camera conforms with the Design rule for
Camera File system universal standard
established by the JEITA (Japan Electronics
and Information Technology Industries
Association).
• Playback of images recorded with your camera
on other equipment and playback of images
recorded or edited with other equipment on
your camera are not guaranteed.
Precaution on copyright
Television programs, films, video tapes, and other
materials may be copyrighted. Unauthorized
recording of such materials may be contrary to
the provision of the copyright laws.
Do not shake or strike the camera
In addition to malfunctions and inability to record
images, this may render the “Memory Stick Duo”
unusable or image data breakdown, damage or
loss may occur.
LCD screen, LCD finder (only models
with an LCD finder) and lens
• The LCD screen and the LCD finder are
manufactured using extremely high-precision
technology so over 99.99% of the pixels are
operational for effective use. However, there
may be some tiny black points and/or bright
points (white, red, blue or green in color) that
constantly appear on the LCD screen and the
LCD finder. These points are normal in the
manufacturing process and do not affect the
recording in any way.
• Be careful when placing the camera near a
window or outdoors. Exposing the LCD screen,
the finder or the lens to direct sunlight for long
periods may cause malfunctions.
• Do not press the LCD screen hardly. The screen
may be uneven and that may cause a
malfunction.
• Do not press the lens portion hard, or it may
cause the malfunction of the lens.
• Images may be trailed on the LCD screen in a
cold location. This is not a malfunction.
Clean the flash surface before use
The heat of flash emission may cause dirt on the
flash surface to become discolored or to stick to
the flash surface, resulting in insufficient light
emission.
Do not get the camera wet
When taking pictures outdoors in the rain or
under similar conditions, be careful not to get the
camera wet. Water entering the inside of the
camera may cause malfunctions which in some
cases may not be repairable. If moisture
condensation occurs, see page 116 and follow the
instructions on how to remove it before using the
camera.
Do not expose the camera to sand or
dust
Using the camera in sandy or dusty locations may
cause malfunction.
Do not aim the camera at the sun or
other bright light
This may cause irrecoverable damage to your
eyes. Or it may cause the malfunction of your
camera.

Shooting still images
Image size
You can choose image size (number of
pixels) and image quality (compression
ratio) based on the kind of images you want
to shoot. The larger you make the image
size and the higher you make the image
quality, the better your image, but also the
larger the amount of data needed to preserve
your image. This means you can save fewer
images in your “Memory Stick Duo.”
Choose an image size and quality
appropriately for the kind of images you
want to shoot.
• When images recorded using earlier Sony
models are played back on this camera, the
display may differ from the actual image size.
• When the images are viewed on the LCD
screen of the camera, they all look the same
size.
• Number of shooting images can differ from
these values according to shooting conditions.
• When the number of remaining shooting
images is greater than 9999, the “>9999”
indicator appears on the LCD screen.
• You can resize the images later (Resize
function, see page 67).

Zoom
Your camera is equipped with zoom
functions that enlarge the image using
optical zoom and two types of digital
processing. Digital zoom can be selected
from smart zoom or precision digital zoom.
When digital zoom is set, the zoom method
switches from optical zoom to digital zoom
when the zoom scale exceeds 3×.
To use only the optical zoom, set [Digital
Zoom] to [Off] on the Setup screen
(page 114). In this case, the digital zoom
area does not appear in the zoom scale
display bar on the LCD screen, and the
maximum zoom is 3×. The enlargement
method and the zoom scale differ according
to the image size and the zoom type, so
select the zoom to match the shooting
purpose.
When digital zoom is set and you press the
zoom button, the zoom scaling indicator
appears on the LCD screen as follows.
• The indicator differs according to the zoom
type.
– Optical zoom:
– Smart zoom:
– Precision digital zoom:
• The AF range finder frame does not appear
when using the digital zoom. The , or
indicators flashes, and AF operates with
priority on subjects located near the center.
Smart zoom
The image is enlarged with almost no
distortion. This lets you use smart zoom
with the same feeling as optical zoom. To
set smart zoom, set [Digital Zoom] to
[Smart] on the Setup screen (page 114).
When you purchase your camera, it is set to
smart zoom.
The maximum zoom scale depends on the
selected image size as follows.
When you purchase your camera,
the image size is set to [5M]. Smart
zoom cannot be used when the
image size is set to [5M] or [3:2], so
set a different image size.
• When using the smart zoom, the image on the
LCD screen may look rough. However, this
phenomenon has no effect on the recorded
image.
• You cannot use the smart zoom in the Multi
Burst mode.
Precision digital zoom
All image sizes are enlarged up to a
maximum 6×. This function cuts out and
enlarges a certain portion of the image, so
the image quality deteriorates. To set
precision digital zoom, set [Digital Zoom]
to [Precision] on the Setup screen
(page 114).

Shooting close-ups — Macro
The close-ups (Macro) recording mode is
used when zooming up subjects such as
flowers or insects. Setting the zoom all the
way to the W side lets you shoot subjects at
distances as close as 8 cm. However, the
minimum focus distance varies according
to the zoom position. Therefore, shooting
with the zoom set all the way to the W side
is recommended.
When the zoom is set all the way to
the W side:
Approx. 8 cm (3 1/4 inches) from the lens
surface
When the zoom is set all the way to
the T side:
Approx. 25 cm (9 7/8 inches) from the lens
surface
• Using Spot AF is recommended (page 47).

Choosing a focus range
finder frame
— AF range finder
Multipoint AF ( )
The camera calculates the distance in five
places to the left, right, top, bottom and in
the center of the image, letting you shoot
using the auto focus function without
worrying about the image composition.
This is useful when it is difficult to focus on
the subject because it is not in the center of
the frame. You can check the position
where the focus was adjusted using the
green frame.
The Multipoint AF is the factory setting.
Center AF ( )
This is useful for focusing on a subject near
the center of the frame. Use together with
the AF lock function lets you shoot in the
desired image composition.
Spot AF ( )
This is useful when focusing on an
extremely small subject or a narrow area.
Use together with the AF lock function lets
you shoot in the desired image composition.
Take care to hold the camera steady so that
the subject does not deviate from the range
finder frame.

Shooting techniques
When shooting with the subject at the edge of
the frame, or when using Center AF or Spot
AF, the camera may focus on the center instead
of on the subject at the edge of the frame. In a
case like this, use AF lock to focus on the
subject, and then recompose the picture and
shoot (except in Continuous AF mode).
Compose the shot so that the subject is
centered in the AF range finder, and press the
shutter button halfway down.
When the AE/AF lock indicator stops flashing
and remains on, return to the fully composed
shot, and press the shutter button fully down.
• When you are using AF lock, you can
capture an image with the correct focus even
if the subject is at the edge of the frame.
• You can carry out the AF lock adjustment
process before you press the shutter button

Selecting the
metering mode
Mode switch: /
The camera measures the brightness to

you select the following two metering
modes to determine which portion of the
subject to use for measuring the brightness.
Multi-pattern metering (no
indicator)
The image is divided into multiple regions
and metering is performed for each region.
The camera judges the subject position and
background brightness, and determines a
well-balanced exposure.
The factory setting is multi-pattern
metering.
Spot metering ( )
Metering is performed for only a portion of
the subject. This lets you adjust the
exposure to the subject even when the
subject is backlit or there is strong contrast
between the subject and the background.
Position the spot metering cross hair on one
point of the subject you want to shoot.
To focus on the metering position, setting
9 (Focus) to [Center AF] is recommended
