Camera Basics

Soft Keys

 

Soft keys are buttons that change function depending on the

 

camera mode, state, and menu option. Each soft key function is

 

labeled on the lower overlay bar, above the key that is used to

 

activate the function. If the overlay bars are off, you can still use

 

the function by pressing a soft key. For example, if the camera is

 

in Play mode and the overlay bars are turned off, you can press

 

the center soft key (the zoom button) once to turn the lower

 

overlay bar on, and then a second time to zoom in on the photo.

Using the Camera Menus

The HP PhotoSmart C500 Digital Camera menus display on the color LCD. You can use these menus to adjust camera settings and use camera features. The menus vary with each camera mode. Use the color LCD and the controls on the back of the camera to access the camera menus and select the menu options. Menu options are described in detail throughout this guide. For a list of options, see “Menu Structure” on page 124 in Appendix B.
