INTRODUCTION

Manual Assist (page 97)

Follow the on-screen guidance when configuring manual exposure settings.

AE Lock (page 99)

A simple operation locks exposure on a particular subject, helping to ensure that the image is focused the way you want.

BESTSHOT (page 113)

Simply select the sample scene that matches the type of image you are trying to record and the camera performs troublesome setups automatically for beautiful pictures every time.

Business Shot (page 121)

Business Shot automatically corrects rectangular shapes when recording the image of a business card, document, whiteboard, or similar subjects from an angle.

Coupling Shot and Pre-shot (pages 117, 119)

Coupling Shot lets you combine two subjects into a single image, while Pre-shot lets you add a subject to a previously recorded background image. This means you can create images that include you and your friend, even if you are the only two people around.

Triple Self-timer (page 75)

The self-timer can be set up to repeat three times, automatically.

Real-time RGB histogram (page 130)

An on-screen histogram lets you adjust exposure as you view the effect on overall image brightness, which makes shooting under difficult lighting conditions easier than ever before.

World Time (page 194)

A simple operation sets the current time for your current location. You can select from among 162 cities in 32 time zones.

Alarm (page 191)

A built-in alarm helps to keep you on time for important events, and even can be used in place of an alarm clock. You can also have a specific image appear, or a movie or audio file to play when the alarm time is reached.

Album Function (page 232)

HTML files are generated automatically to create an album of recorded images. Album contents can be viewed and printed using a standard Web browser. Images can also be incorporated into Web pages quickly and easily.

Calendar screen (page 166)

A simple operation displays a full-month calendar on the camera’s monitor screen. Each day of the full-month calendar shows a thumbnail of the first image recorded for that date, which helps to make searching for a particular image quicker and easier.
