You have now completed the installation of Ulead VideoStudio 4.0. See chapter 5 for instructions on how to
use the camera and the applications.
5. Using the camera and the applications
5.1 Taking
photographs
Note
:
The number of photographs that can be taken is dependent on the number of colours and
the brightness of the object to be photographed. A photograph of a colourful, bright object
requires more memory than a photograph of a dark object in dark surroundings.
Follow the instructions given below to take photographs (see chapters 3.1 and 3.2).
1.
Press the ON/OFF button (K) for 2 seconds and then release it to turn the camera on. The LCD screen
(G) will turn on and the camera will be ready for use.
2.
Set the camera flash to the desired setting using the flash button (I) (AUTO, ON or OFF).
3.
Search for the subject that you wish to photograph in the viewfinder (B).
Note
:
When the distance to the object is less than 10 cm from the lens, the distance is too small
to use the viewfinder.
4.
Press the exposure button (A) to photograph the subject.
5.
If you wish to use the flash, wait a couple of seconds until the flash indicator light (J) lights up before
taking a new photograph.
6.
The camera is then ready to take a new photograph.
7.
If the memory is full, the indicator (J) (see figure 2) in the LCD screen will flash. The memory must be
emptied before taking new photographs. See chapter 5.4 for more information.
8.
You can take photographs in two different resolutions, i.e. High (1280x1024) and Low (640x480). The
resolution can be changed by pressing the MENU button (H) until the star and H shown in figure 2
appear. The resolution can then be changed to either High (H) or Low (L) by pressing the exposure
button (A). The high resolution (1280x1024) is the default resolution.
9.
The camera has an automatic exposure which gives a time delay of 10 seconds before the photograph
is taken. This can be turned on by pressing the MENU button (H) twice. The automatic exposure symbol
(C) will appear in the LCD screen (see figure 2). Now press the exposure button (A) to activate the
automatic exposure. The automatic exposure symbol (C) in the LCD screen will now start to flash. A
peeping sound will be heard during the 10 seconds whilst counting down.
10.
The camera will turn itself off automatically if it is not used for more than one minute. This also depends
on the condition of the batteries. The lower the batteries, the quicker the camera will turn itself off.
Note
:
Keep the glass lens clean so as not to effect the quality of the photographs.
