Taking Pictures with PhotoPC
NOTE
Remember that the camera shuts off automatically after 60 seconds.
To turn the camera back on, slide the power switch OFF, and then
ON. Or press the shutter button to turn on the camera. You will have
to press the shutter button again to take a picture.
Taking Pictures in Range
You should be at least 2 feet (60 cm) away from the subject you are
photographing. If you want to take pictures at a closer range, you should
use a 37 mm video camcorder close-up lens. See page A-5 for
instructions.
However, if you use a close-up or “macro” lens, the viewfinder does not
give you an accurate image of your picture. You may want to connect
the camera to your Macintosh and view your close-up images on the
screen before you capture them. See page 5-5 for information on
viewing and taking pictures from your Macintosh.
You can take flash pictures within a range of 3 to 10 feet, as described on
page 2-5.
TIP
When you’re taking pictures outdoors, make sure the sun is at your back.
In very bright light (at the beach or in snow, for example), your pictures
may come out too light. You can use an ND filter to reduce the amount of
light. See page 6-5 for more information.
Adjusting Settings
You can adjust the following three settings on PhotoPC using the
EasyTouch control buttons on the top of
the camera:
❙ Flash
❙ Resolution
❙ Timer.
Flash and resolution settings remain in effect even after you turn off the
camera.
NOTE
The controls return to their factory settings when you remove or change
the batteries.
