BASIC IMAGE RECORDING
This section describes the basic procedure for recording an
image.
Recording an Image
Your camera automatically adjusts shutter speed in
accordance with the brightness of the subject. Images you
record are stored in the cameras built-in memory, or to a
memory card if you have one loaded in the camera.
When an optionally available SD memory card or
MultiMediaCard (MMC) is loaded in the camera, images
are stored on the card (page 129).
