Step 3—Check the number of exposures remaining
The control panel and LCD monitor show the number of expo-
sures remaining at the current image quality setting.
Step 4—Adjust camera settings
In automatic mode, the user can adjust flash, focus, exposure
compensation, and image quality and size. The default settings,
which produce the best results in most circumstances, are auto-
matic flash, autofocus, no exposure compensation, an image quality
of “normal,” and an image size of “full” (1,600
×
1,200 pixels).
These settings allow the camera to set focus automatically at any
distance greater than 30cm (one foot). The camera measures the
available light and adjusts shutter speed and aperture accordingly,
firing the flash to provide additional light as necessary.
Step 5—Compose a photograph
Information on composing photographs may be found on pages 2–
4 of the Pocket Guide.
When this number reaches zero, you will need to insert a new
memory card or delete items already in memory before you will
be able to take more photographs. It may be possible to record
more photographs at a different image quality setting.
