conditions.

Press the shutter-release button the rest of the way down.
• If the flash lamp (red) blinks when the shutter-release button is fully depressed,
the flash is busy charging. If you continue holding down the shutter-release
button, the DC3810 will take a picture the instant the flash reaches a full charge.
• The LCD monitor displays the captured image as the DC3810 loads it onto
the CF card. While the image is loading, the green focus lamp blinks slowly
(approx. 2 per second) and "RECORDING" blinks on the LCD monitor.
Do not disconnect the DC 3810's power source or remove the CF card during
this function as the CF card could be damaged and/or all of your data lost.
Wait until the focus lamp and "RECORDING" display stop blinking.
