BASIC OPERATION GUIDE

camera with both hands. Position your right thumb
so that it is handy for using the zoom.

!
Moving the camera while shooting gives a blurred picture
(camera shake). Use a tripod to prevent camera shake,
particularly for shots in the dark when the selected flash
mode is Suppressed flash.
●
!
There may be some uneven brightness at the lower edge of
the LCD monitor. This is normal and does not affect the
photographed image.
2Press the Flash pop-up button to pop up the flash.
●
!
When the flash pops up, the image may disappear and go
dark briefly due to flash charging. The viewfinder lamp blinks
orange during charging.

If the flash is used in dusty conditions or when it is snowing,
white dots may appear in the image due to flash reflecting off
the dust particles or snowflakes. Use Suppressed flash mode
to fix the problem.
