Holding the DV Camera
Hold the DV camera with your
right hand through the strap.
Adjust the strap so that you can
operate all the buttons while
holding the DV camera steady.
NOTE:
• Avoid obstructing the DV camera or flash when shooting
photos or audio recordings.
• Hold the DV camera securely with your hand to prevent
shaking and dropping it. Use a tripod for best results,
especially when using the self-timer or in poorly lit places
when the flash is turned off.
• Do not touch the lens or the flash.
Using the Shutter Button
Press the
Shutter
button all
the way down to take a shot
or to record.
Using the Multifunction Button
The
Multifunction
button provides Up, Down, Left, and
Right arrow selections for navigating the menu screens.
In addition, the button can perform different functions,
depending on the selected DV mode, as shown by the
table below.

The OK button, located in the center of the
Multifunction button, allows you to confirm your choice
and switch between nine-image display and single-
image display in Playback mode.
NOTE:
By default, a beep sounds when
the Shutter button is pressed to
indicate that a recording has
been made. If the beep feature is
turned off, however (in the Setup
menu), a “busy” dialog box is the
only indicator that something has
been recorded.
