CHANGING THE CAMERA MODES
The camera has five modes.
Press the mode button until the
desired indicator is displayed on

Each time the mode button is
pressed the mode cycles as
shown. When the camera is
turned off, the mode is reset to
autoflash.
The flash will automatically fire in
low light when the shutter is
released to take the picture.
The flash range depends on the film
speed and focal length in use. To
ensure proper exposure, the subject
must be within the flash range.
