Hints for taking pictures
Saving battery power
i
When you take pictures without using the LCD monitor, you can slow down
the rate of battery consumption (see page 83).
Where is the image data saved?
i
When there is a card installed in your camera, the images you photograph
are stored on the card. If there is no card installed, the images are stored
in the camera’s internal memory.
Taking pictures in backlight conditions...
i
When taking pictures with the light coming from behind the subject, due to
the characteristics of the CCD, light lines or ghost patterns (flare
phenomenon) may appear in the captured image. In this situation, it is
recommended that you avoid taking pictures with the subject lit from
behind.
