Using the Buttons (PLAY)

This chapter describes the following playback functions:

viewing photographs

deleting unwanted photographs individually

These functions can be accessed using the zoom (▼W/T▲) buttons, the command dial, and the three buttons below the control panel. The options available in the playback menu are described in the following chapter.

Follow these steps to view or delete photographs stored on the memory card:

Tips

By default, only photographs in the current folder are displayed in playback mode. To select another folder for viewing, or to view photos in all folders, use the FOLDERS item in the playback menu (see “The Camera Menus: The Playback Menu,” below).

If there are no photographs in the current folder, the message, “card contains no image data” will be displayed. Select another folder using the FOLDERS item in the playback menu. If there are no photographs in any folder, you will be able to use the playback menu (see below), but you will not be able to play images back.

Photographs selected for full-size display are shown briefly at low resolu- tion while they are being read from memory. This feature allows you to page rapidly through the photographs in memory without waiting for every item to be displayed at full resolution. Before the image is displayed at full resolution, the screen will briefly go black.

The first and last photographs in memory are linked. Pressing the T/▲ button when the last photo in memory is selected takes you to the first photo; pressing the W/▼ button when the first photo is selected takes you to the last photo.

1 Turn the mode dial to PLAY. The most recently recorded image will be displayed in the LCD monitor.

2 View the other photos in memory one at a time, or select the photo you want to view from a menu of preview images.

To view photos one at a time:

Use the zoom (▼W/T▲) buttons to view photos one at a time. Press the zoom-out (W/▼) button to view photo- graphs recorded before the current photo, or press the zoom-in (T/▲) button to view images recorded after the current photo. Hold either button down to scroll quickly to a particular frame number without viewing intervening photos. The photograph displayed will not change, but the frame number at the bottom right corner of the LCD monitor will increase or decrease rapidly. Release the zoom button when the desired frame number is reached to display the photo.

The MONITOR button

The MONITOR button controls the LCD monitor. Press the MONITOR button once to hide photo information, a second time to turn the monitor off, and a third time to turn the monitor on with information showing.
