Pictures can sometimes appear blurred as the result of moving the camera while the
shutter button is being pressed.
To prevent the camera from moving, hold the camera firmly with both hands while
keeping your elbows at your sides. When taking pictures with the camera in the
vertical position, hold the camera so that the flash is positioned above the lens. Keep
your fingers and the strap away from the lens and flash.

set the shooting mode. (The shooting mode will be changed every time you press the
button.) To display, edit or erase the recorded pictures, press the

• If you press the K/h/ s button without turning on the camera, the power is
supplied and the shooting mode is set. If you press the
