How to use the Auto mode ( μ )

Select this mode for quick and easy picture taking with minimal user interaction.

1. Insert the batteries (p.12). Insert the

batteries taking note of the polarity (+ / -). 2. Insert the memory card (p.12). As this camera has a 17MB internal memory,

you do not need to insert the memory

card. If the memory card is not inserted, an image will be stored in the internal memory. If the memory

card is inserted, an image will be stored on the memory card.

3. Close the battery chamber cover.

4.Press the power button to turn on the

camera. (If the date/time that is displayed on the LCD monitor is incorrect, reset the date/time before taking a picture.)

5.Select the AUTO mode by rotating the mode dial.

6.Point the camera towards the subject and compose the image by using the LCD monitor.

7.Press the shutter button to capture an image.

If the auto focus frame turns to red when you press the shutter button down half way, it means that the camera cannot focus on the subject. Should this be the case, the camera is unable to capture an image clearly.

How to use the Program mode ( )

Selecting the automatic mode will conﬁgure the camera with optimal settings. You can still manually conﬁgure all functions except the aperture value and shutter speed.

1. Select the PROGRAM mode by rotating the mode dial.
