Step 3—Check the number of exposures remaining
The control panel and color LCD monitor show the number of
exposures remaining at the current image quality setting.
When this number reaches zero, an “out of memory” message
will be displayed in the color LCD monitor (see “Troubleshoot-
ing,” below). Before more photographs can be taken at the
current image quality setting, you will need to insert a new
memory card or delete items already in memory (see “Connec-
tions” and “Deleting Photographs from Memory,” below). It may
be possible to record more photographs at a different image
quality setting.
Note: When more than 999 exposures remain, the exposure
count will show 999.

Step 4—Check the camera’s settings
In automatic mode, the user can adjust image-quality, flash, and
focus settings. The default settings, which produce the best
results in most circumstances, are autofocus, automatic flash,
and an image quality of “normal.”
Under these settings, the camera will choose the shutter speed
and aperture best suited to record subjects at distances of 50
cm (20˝) or more and the flash will be fired whenever lighting is
inadequate. Different settings can be chosen depending on
your needs using the buttons next to the control panel. A
detailed description of the settings available in automatic mode
may be found in the following chapter, “Basic Photography:
Reference.”
