Recording takes a long time.

The image is out of focus.
• The subject is too close. Shoot in (Macro) recording mode. Make sure to position the lens
farther away from the subject than the shortest shooting distance, approximately 8 cm (3 1/4
inches) (W)/25 cm (9 7/8 inches) (T), when shooting. Or, set (Magnifying Glass) and
focus from a distance of approx. 1 cm to 20 cm (13/32 inch to 7 7/8 inches) from the subject
(page 20).
• (Magnifying Glass) is set, or (Hand-held Twilight mode), (Twilight mode),
(Landscape mode) or (Fireworks mode) is selected in the Scene Selection mode when

mode), (Hi-Speed Shutter mode), (Beach mode), or (Snow mode) is selected in
the Scene Selection mode (page 20).
