Quick Start Basics
• Take care to ensure that nothing is restricting or
coming into contact with the lens as it extends. Holding
the lens with your hand so it cannot extend creates the
risk of malfunction.
• Pressing [
p
] (PLAY) while in the REC mode switches
to the PLAY mode. The lens retracts about 10 seconds
after switching modes.
• The Sleep function or Auto Power Off (pages 140, 141) will turn off power
automatically if you do not perform any operation for a preset amount of time.
• While “On” is selected for the “Quick Mode” setting, pressing the shutter button will
turn on the camera so you can shoot a photo. After a few seconds, the camera will
turn off again (page 135). If you turn on the camera using a procedure other than
Quick Mode, the camera will not shut off a few seconds after you shoot an image.
Press [ON/OFF] (Power).
