it on the camera.

– Before using the camera, set the clock.
– Operate the buttons and other controls slowly and carefully.
(If you press a button repeatedly in quick succession or press multiple buttons simultaneously, the
camera may stop responding.)
– Perform the next recording or operation only after the access indication
disappears.
(If you operate the camera while the access indication is displayed, the image being recorded may
not be saved correctly.)

low.
