• To extend battery life, always switch the camera off when it is not in
use.
• If the camera remains idle for three minutes, the camera enters
standby mode and the monitor goes off to save battery energy. To
resume shooting, lightly press the shutter button or zoom lever, close
and open the lens barrier, or press any button on the arrow pad, the
OK button, the menu button, or the monitor button.
• Normally if the camera remains idle for four hours in the standby
mode, it will turn off completely. (If new batteries are installed, then it
may take longer for the camera to shut down, depending on the type
of batteries in use.)

Shooting Technique Depends on Distance to the Subject
Deciding whether to use the viewfinder or the monitor display when
shooting depends on the distance between you and your subject.
Determine the approximate distance before taking the picture.
For normal and long-range photography
(from approx. 1.5m (59″) to ∞(infinity)):
We recommend using the viewfinder.
For close-ups (from 0.8m (31″) to approx. 1.5m (59″)):
Although you can use the viewfinder to take pictures, in some cases it
is better to use the monitor. See below for details.
For extreme close-ups (0.2m (8″) ~ 0.8m (31″)):
Use the macro mode and compose the shot with the monitor to take
pictures. Although it is possible to take such shots without using the
macro mode, proper exposure and focus may not be achieved.
Characteristics of the viewfinder and the monitor
You can use either the monitor or the viewfinder to determine the
proper shooting range. Consider the following when deciding
whether to use the viewfinder or the monitor for a particular shot:
Viewfinder
Advantage: You can maintain the proper subject composition with less
camera movement.
Disadvantage: Close-up photography causes inconsistencies between
the picture frame as seen in the viewfinder and the actual edge of
the picture.
Monitor
Advantage: You can check the subject composition more accurately.
Disadvantage: It is more difficult to hold the camera steady, and
battery life is decreased.
14

Taking Still Pictures
1Compose the shot in the viewfinder. (The area of the actual
picture will be slightly larger than the composed shot.)
2Half-press and hold down the shutter button until the green
lamp next to the viewfinder lights.
3Slowly full-press the shutter button. The camera beeps when
the shot is completed and the green lamp next to the viewfinder
will flash as the image is stored. If the orange lamp next to the
viewfinder lights, the flash will fire automatically.
4Wait for the green lamp next to the viewfinder to stop flashing
before you take another picture.
• Always make sure the green lamp is off before you take another
picture.
• The time you must wait between shots while the green lamp is
blinking (2 to 40 sec.) depends on the record mode selected.
(Larger images require more time for storing.)
CAUTION
• To avoid losing images stored on the card, including the image currently
being stored, while the green lamp next to the viewfinder is flashing,
never remove the batteries, remove the card, or disconnect the AC
adapter.

English

Taking Pictures With the Monitor

4To release the camera from monitor shooting, press the monitor
button ( ).
When shooting with the monitor:
• The memory gauge is displayed while the shot is being stored.
• When the memory gauge displays full, you must wait several
seconds for the memory gauge to go off before you can take the
next shot.
• The memory gauge may be displayed for a short or long time,
depending on the selected record mode. (Larger images require
more time for storing.)
CAUTION

currently being stored, while the green lamp next to the viewfinder is
flashing, never remove the batteries, remove the card, or disconnect
the AC adapter.
