Step 1 Turn the Camera On

Turning the Camera On and Off

When the camera is turned on, the power-on

lamp (green) will light, and then the monitor will turn on (the power-on lamp turns off when the monitor turns on).

To turn off the camera, close the slide cover. The

power-on lamp and the monitor will turn off.

BNotes on Opening and Closing the Slide Cover

Be sure to keep your fingers or other objects away from the lens when opening and closing the slide cover.

The camera turns on before the slide cover is fully open, but shooting is not possible until the cover is fully open.

When the camera is not in use, close the slide cover completely. Otherwise, power continues to be consumed even when the monitor is off, and the battery runs low.
