ed with a still image. The function is activated and the length of the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

recording time is set in the advanced 2 section of the recording-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

mode menu (p. 80). When the function is active, the microphone icon

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

is displayed on the data panel and LCD monitor. Voice memo must

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

be set before taking a picture. It will remain in effect until reset.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After an image is captured, a screen will appear indicating the audio

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

recording has started. A bar graph (1) will display the amount of

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

recorded time. The recording will automatically stop when the set

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

time has elapsed. To cancel the recording and erase the audio track,
