TAKING PHOTOS
Note
Select Macro shot mode when the subject is between 0.2m ~ 0.8m from the camera. Refer to page 32 for information on Macro shooting.
If you take an image in dark place " LOW LUMINANCE" message will display on the LCD monitor. In addition, it may cause the camera to fix the focus as listed below.
Normal shot mode : 2.5M Macro shot mode : 0.5M
In this case, increase the lighting value or take an image in a bright place.
If you do not select the correct shot mode appropriate to the distance from the subject to the camera, you will not be able to obtain a clear shot of the subject.
Avoid obstructing the Flash control sensor when you take an image. An image can be spoiled when a finger, hair or camera strap is in front of the Flash control sensor.
Using the LCD monitor extensively will drain the batteries. We recommend using the optical viewfinder as often as possible in order to extend battery life. If the LCD monitor is more appropriate, switching it off between shots will also help to extend the battery life.

To optimise the amount of memory in the camera, replace the CF CARD or delete unnecessary images stored on the CF CARD.
