NOTE If you change other camera settings in the Capture menu, icons for those settings will also be displayed across the top and bottom of the Live View screen. For more information, see Using the capture menu on page 34.

Using the diopter control

The rubber eye piece on the viewfinder is a diopter control that you can turn to adjust the focus in the microdisplay. However, the diopter control has NO effect on the actual picture you take or video clip you record.

Taking still pictures

You can take a picture almost any time the camera is on, regardless of what is being shown on the active display. Your camera has two modes for taking still pictures: Still mode

and Self-Timer mode.

Using still mode

1Rotate the OFF/Mode selector to Still mode.

2Frame the subject for your picture in the active display.

3Hold the camera steady and press the Shutter button halfway down. The camera measures and then locks the focus and exposure.

4Press the Shutter button all the way down to take the picture. The image is displayed for several seconds in Instant Review on the active display. See Using instant review on page 25.
