Notes
• When it is set to [Auto], do not cover the light sensor with your hand or other object.
• When using the camera with the AC-PW10AM AC Adaptor (sold separately), the
brightness of the LCD screen is always set to the brightest setting even if you select
[Auto].
• Since the [Sunny Weather] setting is too bright to use indoors, set it to [Auto] or
[Manual] indoors.
The brightness of the viewfinder is automatically adjusted to the lighting
conditions of the subject.
You can set the brightness of the viewfinder manually.

You can shorten the waiting time until the camera turns to the power save
mode when it is not being operated to prevent the battery from being
consumed. If you operate the camera, for example, pressing the shutter
button halfway down, the camera returns to the shooting mode. If you do
not operate the camera for a given period of time, the brightness of the LCD
screen is reduced.
