You’ve read the chapter on getting ready and the camera is now set up and ready to take pictures.
The Basic Photography section explains the three basic steps of “taking pictures”, “viewing pictures” and
“erasing pictures”. Master the basic steps by actually trying them out on the camera as you go.
SETTING THE DATE AND TIME
◆
Power Save Function
◆
If the camera is not used for 2 minutes, this
function automatically switches it off.
When this function is enabled, the LCD
monitor switches off to conserve battery
power if the camera is not used in any way
for 30 seconds (See P.68 for details).
◆
Checking the remaining battery charge
◆
Switch the camera on and check that no battery
level warning (
Z or X) is displayed on the
LCD monitor. If no icon is displayed, there is
ample charge left in the batteries.
i
Z Lit red:
Battery charge low. Replace or recharge the
battery as it will run out shortly.
i
X Blinking red:
The batteries are exhausted. The display will
shortly go blank and the camera will stop
working. Replace or recharge the batteries.
