Compose the image on the monitor screen and
then press the shutter button about half way.
• The message “STAND BY” appears on the monitor
screen to indicate that the camera’s buffer memory is
accumulating image data. This message remains dis-
played for about 10 seconds.
• After “STAND BY” disappears from the monitor
screen, the contents of the buffer memory continues
to be updated as long as you keep the shutter button
depressed about half way.
6.
Keep the camera pointed at the action you
want to record, and press the shutter button all
the way down when you want to end recording.
• Pressing the shutter button after “STAND BY” disap-
pears from the monitor screen records everything that
went on in front of the lens during the 10-second pe-
riod before you pressed the shutter button.
• Pressing the shutter button while “STAND BY” is still
on the monitor screen records everything that went on
in front of the lens during the period from when you
pressed the shutter button half way down and when
you pressed it all the way down. In this case, the re-
cording will be less than 10 seconds long.
