4 The Basics

This chapter describes the functions available in Basic mode and provides basic instructions for composing, focusing, and capturing images.

Basic Mode

Your camera has two modes for accessing digital functions: Basic and Advanced modes. Using Basic mode you can change settings on some digital functions. All other digital functions are set to factory defaults. When you become familiar with your camera, change to Advanced mode

(see page 4-2) and access the entire set of digital functions.

In Basic mode you can use a COMPACTFLASH (CF) card (see page 6-1). In Advanced mode, however, you can use one or two cards: a CF card and either a Secure Digital (SD) card or a MultiMedia (MMC) card. In Basic mode, all images are saved in the JPEG format.

Basic mode functions include:

ISO

White Balance

Raw Resolution

JPEG Resolution

Format Card

Display Contrast

Overexposure Indicator
