3 Taking Pictures

Before you take pictures, please read this note first:

IMPORTANT!

Never remove batteries while a picture is being saved. Doing so will prevent the current picture being saved and may corrupt other pictures already stored in the camera’s internal memory or on a memory card.

Outdoor Pictures Without the Flash

Avoid intense sunlight that may cause sun spots in pictures.

Always make sure that the sun or other light source is in front of the subject.

Taking a Picture

Taking pictures at approximately 3.2 feet to infinity (1 meter to infinity).

1. Turn on the camera.

2. Set the camera to Still Image mode.

3. Frame your subject using the LCD screen or the viewfinder.

4. Hold the camera steady. Press the Shutter button completely down to take a picture. A beep will sound (if the beep sound is turned on) when a picture is taken.
