Notes:

Recording under insufficient lighting may result in blurred images. It is recommended that you use a tripod to record insufficiently illuminated subjects.

Recording under the light of a fluorescent, mercury, or sodium lamp may cause flickering in the image and, depending on the timing of the shot, may result in changes to color hue in the image.

Caution:

Do not turn the power off while the S indicator is flashing in step 6.

4 Hold down the Lock button and set the Power switch to CAMERA.

The picture from the lens is now displayed in the viewfinder.
