Taking a picture
There are two picture taking modes. In Auto Mode, all you have to
do is press the shutter button and let the camera judge the
environmental conditions for you. In Manual Mode, you can manually
adjust the exposure and set the white balance based on different
environmental conditions.
If you don’t insert the SD card into the camera, you can take pictures
and store them in the camera's memory. Once you insert the SD
card in the camera, all new images captured will be saved on the card.
Taking a Picture in Auto Mode
1. Select the Mode dial to Auto (
).
2. Press the POWER button (
) to turn on the camera.
3. Press the Shutter button halfway and align the auto focus mark on
the subject you want to take. When the focus is locked, the auto
focus mark turns Green and the LED indicator next to the
viewfinder lights in green.
4. Take a picture by pressing the shutter button further. When it makes a
sound, the image has been taken and will be recorded on the card
or on board memory.
* The Auto Focus Indicator will not appear if the Focus Indicator set-
ting is turned off.
* The beep will not sound if the beeper setting is turned off.
5. While recording the image on the memory card, the LED indicator will
flash in Green. Once the LED indicator stops flashing, the recording
has finished.
Note: The camera will emit a stream of beeps when the memory is full.
