How to use the Auto mode

Select this mode for quick and easy picture taking with minimal user
interaction.

1. Insert the battery (p.15) taking note of

the correct polarity (+/-).

2. Insert the memory card (p.15). As this

camera has a 190MB internal memory,
it is not essential to insert the memory
card. If the memory card is not
inserted, an image will be stored in the
internal memory. If the memory card is
inserted, an image will be stored on the memory card.

3. Close the battery chamber cover.
4. Press the POWER button to turn on the camera. (If the date/time that

is displayed on the LCD monitor is incorrect, reset the date/time before
taking a picture.)

5. Select the Auto mode by pressing the M(Mode) button.
6. Point the camera towards the subject and compose the image.
7. Press the Shutter button to capture an image.

If the auto focus frame turns to red when you press the Shutter
button down half way, it means that the camera cannot focus
on the subject. Should this be the case, the camera is less
likely to capture an image clearly.

Avoid obstructing the lens or the fl ash when you capture an
image.
