Find Out How Many Pictures You
Have Taken

Note: If you take more than 999
pictures, the camera counter
returns to 001. The camera icon
flashes, indicating that the number
of pictures is 999 plus the number
displayed on the counter.

Use the Self-timer

• Check out the LCD Counter. The

counter displays the number of 
pictures or videos taken, from 
0 to 999.

• Keep pressing the Mode button until

the Self-timer icon displays and
press the Shutter button. 

The camera then pauses for about
10 seconds: It sends out 6 slow and
then 6 fast warning beeps before
taking the picture.
