7.1. OFF MODE
The
OFF
mode is the "safe" mode when any actions must
be taken, e.g., replacing the SD card or batteries, or
transporting the device. And of course, when you are
storing or not using the camera, you will switch it to
OFF.

battery compartment if the camera will not be used for a
long time.

the camera with the help of its built-in screen. These
settings, found in the menu by pressing

photos, switch the time imprint on, etc.
