TAKING PICTURES

Like a conventional camera, the ePhoto CL30 has a viewfinder. You can also frame the image on the color LCD. Before you can take pic- tures, install the batteries and a CompactFlash memory card.

To take pictures:

1.Slide the Mode switch to REC.

2.If you want to view the image on the color LCD, slide the LCD switch to ON. The LCD displays the Agfa logo briefly and then the live image.

3.Select your settings. See Changing Basic Settings on page 17.

4.Frame the picture in the viewfinder or on the color LCD.

5.Press the shutter button halfway to lock the focus and calculate the exposure. Press it all the way down to take the picture.

The camera processes the image. The green Ready light on the back of the camera blinks. If the color LCD is on, the image is “drawn” on the screen. After a few seconds, the live image appears on the LCD and the camera is ready for the next shot.

If the QuickReview option is on, the color LCD displays a menu as the image is processed. See QuickReview on

page 22.
