Understanding the Status Screen

When you turn on the camera, the HP logo screen and then the status screen appear briefly on the Image Display.

The main part of the status screen shows the number of pictures remaining, battery level, and the current settings for Flash, Resolution, and Compression. Any non-default Capture menu settings are shown as icons across the top of the status

screen (default settings for Capture menu items do not have icons).

The status screen also appears for a few seconds any time you press the Flash button, Timer/Burst button, Focus button, or open/close the pop-up flash assembly.

1Scroll to the language that you

want by using the buttons on the Controller .

2Press the OK button to select the highlighted language.

NOTE If you need to go back and

change the language later, you can do this in the Setup menu. See Chapter 6: Using the Setup Menu on page 83.
