5The fl ash icon in the viewfi nder will change according to your new fl ash mode.

Note: Whenever you exit the camera, the fl ash setting will revert to the default off mode. You’ll need to switch the fl ash back on if you still need it when you reopen the camera.

TIP! In camera mode the unlock/lock button functions as an Image Stabilizer mechanism. The Image Stabilizer compensates for small movements the camera makes when you’re shooting a picture. This is useful when you’re taking photos without the fl ash, as the exposure is longer and therefore the camera will pick up on small movements.

Using the quick settings

1Touch to open the quick settings options. These include various options for

taking photos at night (e.g. Night or Party), for landscape or portrait photography or to photograph moving subjects (e.g. Sport mode). Select High Sensitive for a more luminescent photo.

2Touch the preset quick setting which best suits the conditions.

3Take your photo.
