Before keystone correction After keystone correction Setup Sample Images • Business cards and • White board, etc. documents IMPORTANT! • Before recording, compose the image so outline of the item you want to record fits entirely within the monitor screen. The camera will not be able to detect the shape of the subject correctly unless it is enclosed entirely within the monitor screen. • The camera also will be unable to detect the shape of the subject if it is the same color as the background. Make sure the subject is against a background that allows the outline of the subject to stand out. • Digital zoom is disabled while recording with Business Shot. However, you can use optical zoom. 92 OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS NOTE • When the camera is at an angle to a business card or document it is recording, the shape of the business card or document may appear distorted in the image.
