HP 618 manual Viewing Images Full Screen, Understanding the Overlay Bars, Zooming in on Images

Note: You can change the playback rate in the Playback Rate submenu of the Play Settings menu. For more information, see “Playback Rate Submenu” on page 76.

Viewing Images Full Screen

When you first enter Playback mode, the image LCD displays the last image saved on the memory card. The image appears full screen. To view a full screen image of the other captured images on the memory card, press the right or left arrow on the 4-way controller to scroll through the images.

Understanding the Overlay Bars

The Playback mode displays two overlay bars. The top overlay bar contains information about the image (including the image number, the date and time the image was captured, as well as some of the key camera settings that were used to capture the image, such as the image type and exposure mode). The bottom overlay bar contains the soft key labels.

Turning the Overlay Bars Off and On

By default, both the top and bottom overlay bars are displayed in Playback mode. However, you can turn one or both overlay bars off so you can see more of each image on the image LCD. Simply press the DISPLAY button on the back of the camera once to turn both overlay bars off, a second time to turn the bottom one on only, and a third time to turn both on again.

Zooming in on Images

If you want to see a portion of an image in more detail, press the middle (Zoom) soft key. When you are zoomed in, you can use the 4-way controller to see different parts of the image. You must then zoom out by pressing the middle (Zoom Out) soft key before moving to a different image.

Playing Back Timelapse and Grouped Images

You can play back sequences of Timelapse and grouped images at a pre-defined rate, much like a slideshow.

To play back image sequences:

1Use the 4-way controller to scroll to the Timelapse or grouped images you want to play back.

2Press the left (Play) soft key. The images, including any sound you have attached to them, will play back on the image LCD.

3Press the left (Stop) soft key to stop playing back your images.
