Taking pictures

RECORD MODE

The camera is equipped with an optical viewfinder and a 1.6" LCD monitor to com-

pose pictures. Taking pictures by using the viewfinder can conserve battery power.

If the battery level is low and there are no extra batteries handy, we recommend

that you use the viewfinder to compose pictures. Using LCD monitor can accu-

rately compose pictures and examine all details but consume more battery power.

Using the viewfinder

1. Turn the camera on by sliding the POWER

switch.

2. Turn the mode dial to the mode or the

mode.

3. Compose the picture in the viewfinder.

4. Press the shutter button down halfway (the

camera adjusts the exposure and the focus),

then press it the rest of the way down.

 When the camera adjusts the exposure and

focus, the LED indicator lights red. Take a

picture until the LED indicator lights green.

 The LED indicator blinks orange while the

camera is processing a captured image.
