has been taken, and the image will be

 

recorded on the card (or built-in memory).

turned off (p.102).

5.During recording to the card, the red LED and the self-timer LED on the front of the camera will come on, and the green LED will flash.

•If you set the beep sound to off (p.102), the self- timer LED will not be lit.

•While the card is processing image data, you cannot operate the camera.

Once the red and green LEDs disappear, the recording has finished.

Do not open the battery/card cover while the red and green LEDs are flashing.
