In addition to a convenient exterior focus
ring, this Mega Cam features a pair of
icons that let you quickly perform a
couple of popular functions without
the need to access a software menu.
• Pre ss the camera icon to take a snapshot.
• Pre ss the “E” (“effects”) icon to move
through a 26-option menu of useful frame
styles and special effects (ranging from “ Postcard” to “Merry Christmas”
and from “Aged Photo” to “Mosaic,” as displayed below in Advanced
Settings on the Effects screen).

modes and such) or to take advantage of the variety of effects (special

Settings tab to change between

Output Size drop-down menu, among several other V ideo Format and
Compression options).
