Taking a photograph
1.
The camera’s default setting is the photo mode. If the camera is not in the
photo mode, press the mode button (C, figure 1) until a photo camera is
shown in the top left-hand corner of the LCD screen (1, figure 2). The ‘H’ or
‘L’ (7, figure 2) indicates the resolution.
2.
The camera is now ready to take a photograph.
3.
Direct the camera towards the object that you wish to photograph.
4.
Press the exposure button (A, figure 1). The camera will make a beep.
5.
The next photograph can be taken once the photograph counter has been
increased by 1.
6. The
photographs
will be saved in JPG format in the camera’s flash memory.
No more photographs can be taken once the memory is full. The photograph counter
will flash and two beeps will be heard.
Note
:
The quality of the photograph depends on the amount of light. The
more light, the better the quality of the photograph.
Note
:
The number of photographs that can be taken depends on the
number of colours and the brightness of the object to be
photographed. A photograph of a colourful, bright object requires
more memory than a photograph of a dark object in dark
surroundings.
Note
:
Keep the glass of the lens clean so as not to affect the quality of the
photographs. Use a soft, dry cloth or a cotton bud to clean the lens.
NEVER
use (aggressive) cleaning products.
Note:
The image viewed through the viewfinder may be slightly different to
what is recorded through the lens
.

Media Card
If inserted, all the photographs will be saved on the Smart Media Card. The Smart
Media Card must be removed from the camera when it is full. A new Smart Media
Card can be inserted or the internal memory can be used. The photographs will be
saved in the internal memory if the Smart Media Card is not available. A low pitched
beep indicates that a photograph is saved on the Smart Media Card (indicated in the
display by the symbol <|). A high pitched beep indicates that a photograph is saved
in the internal memory.
