Recording
Pictures are recorded continuously while moving the camera horizontally, and two pictures
selected automatically are combined to make a single 3D picture.
To view 3D pictures, a television that supports 3D is required. (This unit will play back in 2D)
Refer to
for details about the playback method.

Technique for 3D Photo Mode
Start the recording and then slide the camera horizontally
straight from left to right.
• A guide is displayed while recording.
• Move the camera approximately 10 cm (0.33 feet) within
approximately 4 seconds using the guide.
∫
To avoid mistakes in 3D recording
• Take a picture of a subject that is not moving.
• Take a picture in a well-lit place, such as outdoors, etc.
• Fix the focus and exposure by pressing the shutter button
halfway, then press the shutter button fully and move the camera.
• When you start recording with the subject slightly to the right of the centre, the subject will be close
to the centre in the final picture.
Note
• You cannot record 3D pictures in vertical orientation.
• The 3D pictures are saved in MPO format (3D).
• Zoom position is fixed to Wide.
• The picture size is fixed to 2M (16:9).
• The ISO sensitivity is automatically adjusted. However, the ISO sensitivity is increased to make the
shutter speed become high-speed.
• Motion pictures cannot be recorded during 3D Photo Mode.
• Recording may not be possible depending on the recording conditions for the following cases. You
may not get a 3D effect or the picture may be warped even if it was possible to record.
– When the subject is too dark/bright
– When the brightness of the subject changes
– When the subject is moving
– Not enough contrast
