Notes About Saving Images or Movies

The indicator showing the number of exposures remaining or the indicator showing 
the remaining recording time flashes while images or movies are being saved. 

Do 

not open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover or remove the 
battery or memory card

 while an indicator is flashing. Doing this could result in 

loss of data, or in damage to the camera or the memory card.

C

The Auto Off Function

When no operations are performed for about one minute, the monitor turns off, 
the camera enters standby mode, and then the power-on lamp flashes. The 
camera turns off after remaining in standby mode for about three minutes.

To turn the monitor back on while the camera is in standby mode, perform an 
operation such as pressing the power switch or shutter-release button.

C

When Using a Tripod

We recommend using a tripod to stabilize the camera in the following situations:

- When shooting in dim lighting with the flash mode (

A

18) set to 

W

 (off)

- When the zoom is at a telephoto position
