Taking still pictures (Cont.) 

How to turn off only the monitor

T

Press the 

(monitor) button. The monitor turns off. If 

is

pressed again, the monitor turns on.

The green lamp blinks.

T

If you want to get as close as approximately 0.1 m (0.3 ft) in the
maximum W position or 1 m (3.2 ft) in the maximum T position to your
subject, put the camera into the macro mode (P. 69).

T

Depending on the subject, focus and exposure (brightness) may not
be locked (P. 53).

How to brighten/darken the viewfinder and/or monitor

T

Adjust the brightness in the 

setting (P. 115).

The monitor does not turn on.

T

If the camera is not used for over 30 sec., the monitor turns off. If you
operate the shutter button or zoom lever, the monitor turns on again.

How to automatically check the picture you have just taken

T

Set REC VIEW to ON (P. 116).

Vertical lines on the viewfinder/monitor make it hard to see the
image.

T

Bright light (such as direct sunlight) may cause vertical lines to appear
on the viewfinder/monitor. This is not a malfunction.

TIPS

Press the shutter button gently using the ball of your finger. If the button is
pressed hard, the camera may move and pictures may come out blurred.

Recorded pictures will be saved on the card regardless of whether the
camera is turned off or the batteries are replaced or removed.

Never open the card cover, eject the card, remove the batteries, or
disconnect an AC adapter when the card access lamp is blinking.  Doing so
could destroy stored pictures and prevent storage of pictures you have just
taken.
