4.2 Taking Images
Power up the camera, locate a subject in the viewfinder and
you are ready to take images (pictures). Press the Shutter
button to take an image.
“CAP.” (short for Capture) will appear on the Status LCD and
the image will be stored in memory. In about four seconds
you will be able to take another image. (If you are using the
internal flash it may take 15 – 25 seconds to recharge the
flash capacitor.)
•
If you are using a memory card, the
icon will
appear in the Information/Status LCD and the image
will be stored on the memory card.
•
For a best quality image, hold your camera firmly and
still. Do not move or shake while taking an image.
•
If your memory card is full, a "Card Full" message will
appear on the Status LCD. You need to transfer
images from your memory card before you can use it
again.
•
Note: All digital cameras exhibit a behavior known
as “shutter latency” - the amount of time between the
moment that you press the shutter button and the
time that the camera actually captures the image.
(While the camera determines exposure settings.)
The latency for your camera is about one (1) second.
