Specifying an Image for the Startup Screen

You can specify an image you recorded with the camera as the startup screen image, which causes it to appear on the monitor screen for about two seconds whenever you turn on the camera.

1.In the REC mode or the PLAY mode, press [MENU].

2.Select the “Set Up” tab, select “Startup”, and then press [￿].

3.Use [￿] and [￿] to display the image you want to use as the startup image.

4.Use [￿] and [￿] to change the setting, and then press [SET].

To do this:

Select this setting:

 

 

Use the currently displayed image

On

as the startup screen image

 

 

 

Disable the startup screen

Off

 

 

IMPORTANT!

You can select any one of the following types of image as the startup image.

The camera’s built-in startup image

A snapshot you recorded with the camera

An audio snapshot you recorded with the camera (EX-M20U only)

The snapshot image that you select as the startup image is stored in a special memory location called “startup image memory”. Only one image can be stored in startup image memory at one time. Selecting a new startup image overwrites anything that is already stored in startup image memory. Because of this, if you want to return to a previous startup image, you need to have a separate copy of that image in the camera’s standard image memory.

The startup image is deleted by the format operation (page 119).

If you store an audio snapshot to startup image memory (EX-M20U only), the image’s audio is not played when the image is displayed at startup.
