Manner mode

Pressing the power button over 2 seconds changes the buzzer and start-up sound setting to OFF, though you have set the settings to ON. If you wish to hear the buzzer sound and startup sound, set the [SOUND] and [S.SOUND] settings in the SETUP mode to ON.

There are two LED lamps (one green, one red) positioned next to the viewfinder.

-If the camera is in focus when you press the shutter button halfway, the green LED will illuminate and you can take an image. If the camera can focus on the subject, the autofocus frame in the center of the LCD monitor will change from white to green.

-If the red lamp illuminates, the flash can fire.

-If the red lamp blinks, the flash is being charged.

-When an image is being stored onto the memory card, the green lamp blinks slowly. When the image data has been stored, the green LED light will go out. After the green LED light has gone out, you can resume taking images.
