Getting Started
Now that you are familiar with the layout of your camera, you are ready to start
taking photos and movies.
Taking your First Photo
Taking a photo with the camera is very simple.
1. Turn the camera on and turn the
Mode Dial
to
Auto
mode.
2. Frame the shot on the LCD screen and press the
Shutter
button halfway. The
camera automatically adjusts the focus and exposure. The focus bracket turns
green when ready.
3. Press fully and hold the
Shutter
button to capture the image.
When a camera steady warning icon
appears, hold the camera as still as pos-
sible, as a longer exposure time (more than 1/30 second) is required.
Anti-Shake Function
This function is only available in
Auto
capture
mode. Press the /
button to enable the Anti-
Shake function, and press again to disable it. An
Anti-Shake
icon
displays on the LCD screen
when the function is activated.
Using Quick Review
To delete a photo when using Quick Review:
1. Press the
Left/Quick Review
navigation
button.
2. Press the /
button, a confirmation screen is displayed.
Select
This Image
to delete the photo or
Cancel
to keep it.
3. Press
OK
to confirm your selection.
You can also delete photos from the Playback menu. See “Deleting Photos/Videos/
Audios” on page 29 for more detailed information.
Using Macro Mode
Macro mode is designed for close-up photography and can capture all detail even
when your subject is very close to the camera. Turn the
Mode Dial
to
Macro
mode. The Macro icon
displays on the LCD screen.
