Date and time

*1 The amount of time the shutter remains open, allowing light passing through the lens to reach the CCD. A larger shutter speed value indicates that the shutter remains open longer, which means more light reaches the CCD. The camera adjusts this setting automatically.

*2 The size of the opening (aperture) that allows light passing through the lens to reach the CCD. A larger aperture value indicates a smaller opening for light to pass through. The camera adjusts this setting automatically.

5.After making sure that the image is focused properly, press the shutter button the rest of the way down to

record.

• The number of images you can record depends on the image size and the image quality

setting you are using (pages 67, 68, 210).
