SLEEP
After a specified period of time elapses with no operations being performed, the camera enters
the sleep mode (stand-by) to save battery power. After the super control panel is displayed for a
specified period of time, the backlight turns off. After a specific period of time has further
passed, the camera enters sleep mode. [SLEEP] lets you select sleep timer from [1 MIN], [3
MIN], [5 MIN], or [10 MIN]. [OFF] cancels the sleep mode.
The camera activates again as soon as you touch any button (the shutter button, arrow pad,
etc.).
BACKLIT LCD (Backlight timer)
To save battery power, after the super control panel is displayed for a specified period of time,
the monitor backlight turns off and the monitor darkens. Select from [8 SEC], [30 SEC], or [1
MIN] for the time until the backlight turns off. [HOLD] sets the backlight to stay on.
The monitor backlight turns on again as soon as you touch any button (the shutter button, arrow
pad, etc.).
