SetupCAMERA PARTSand Basic Operation

1.The camera is powered by two AAA alkaline, lithium, or NiMh batteries (not included). Insert batteries into the compartment, with the springs in contact with the negative (flat) end of each battery. A power meter on the left center of the display indicates battery condition.

2.Insert an SD card ("upside down" with metal contacts facing up) in the slot if greater storage is desired. You may use SD cards (not MMC cards) up to 8 GB capacity.

3.Press and hold the MODE button until the camera turns on. The camera will turn off automatically after about one minute if no buttons are pressed.Note: when the camera is connected to a computer via the supplied USB cable, the camera will power on automatically, and draw power from the computer with no battery drain.

4.Hold the ImageView steady and press SNAP to take a picture (or start/stop shooting a video, when the camera is in video mode). The camera focus is preset to take sharp photos from appoximately 35 feet to infinity.

5.When using a tripod, you can help avoid the effects of camera shake by plugging the supplied remote shutter release into the jack next to the SD card slot, and using the button on the remote rather than SNAP to take photos.
