Follow these instructions when shooting a still image:
1.Set the Mode switch to
(Photo).
Settings are automatically adjusted and displayed on the LCD screen.
2.Frame the subject using the LCD screen.
3.Press the Shutter button.
The still image is taken when a beep sounds. Do not move the camera until you hear the beep.
The camera is ready to take another picture when a message “BUSY” disappears from the LCD screen.
NOTE:
•Minimum distance between the lens and your subject must be 1m.
•Take care when shooting the following subjects as they are difficult to bring into focus:
-Low contrast subjects such as a flat white surface
-Flat, smooth objects
-Quickly moving objects
-Subjects that are dimly illuminated
-Reflective surfaces
-Subjects in locations with heavy backlighting
For best results, focus on a separate object that is near your subject and then shoot the picture.
