Using the easy Mode

The easy mode eliminates troublesome setups and simplifies snapshot recording. This mode is recommended for those who are new to digital imaging.

1.In the REC mode, press [SET].

2.Use [8] and [2] to select the second Control Panel option from the bottom (easy Mode).

3.Use [4] and [6] to select “On” and then press [SET]. This enters the easy mode.

4.Focus the image.

While the focus frame is aligned with the subject, half-press the shutter button.

5.Shoot the image.

When the image is focused, press the shutter button the rest of the way. This records the snapshot.

.Using the easy Menu

The easy menu contains flash, self-timer, and image size settings, plus an item for exiting the easy mode.

While the camera is in the easy mode, all the other settings (besides Flash, Self- timer, Image Size, and easy Mode) on the REC tab menu (page 127) and Quality tab menu (page 127) are fixed at preset optimum values. Any settings you configured on these tabs are not used in the easy mode.

IMPORTANT!

To use the Set Up tab menu (page 128), you need to exit the easy mode. To do this, select the “easy Mode” item in step 2 of the following procedure, and then select l in step 3. After that, you can use the Set up tab menu as you normally do.
