Audio recording stops when you release the Shutter button; otherwise, the audio will continue recording for up to 60 seconds or until the camera runs out of memory, whichever happens first. After recording has stopped, the image is displayed for several seconds in Instant Review on the Image Display. You can delete the image and the audio clip that is attached to the image during Instant Review by pressing the Menu/OK button.

You can use Playback to review the audio clips you have recorded. See Using the Playback Menu on page 75. To delete or record a new audio clip, use the Record Audio option in the Playback menu. See Record Audio on page 83.

Orientation Sensor

An electro-mechanical device in the camera determines whether the camera is being held horizontally or vertically when a still picture is taken. The camera uses the data from this sensor to automatically rotate the image to its proper orientation when saving the file.

NOTE You can also manually rotate still images using the Rotate option in the Playback Menu. See Rotate on page 84.

NOTE The orientation sensor is disabled when the camera is in the Panorama shooting mode.
