Taking pictures

This chapter provides information to help you take great pictures. You can simply
turn on the camera, position the Mode dial to Capture, and start taking pictures.
However, you may want to change some of the default settings. This chapter also
provides the instructions for defining these settings.

Turning the camera on or off

1

Press Power to turn on the camera.

The green Ready light on the back of the
camera blinks for approximately 6 seconds
until the camera is ready to take pictures.

2

Press Power and hold for at least one full
second to turn off the camera.

This built-in delay prevents accidentally
turning off the camera.

If the camera is turned off while a picture is
being processed, the camera retracts the
lens immediately and finishes processing
the picture before turning off. Your camera
automatically turns off if it is idle for the
time period you set in the Camera
Properties Time-out Settings, see page 6-3.
