Basic Photography and Playback
This section describes how to take photographs in i (auto) mode, an
automatic “point-and-shoot” mode in which the majority of settings
are controlled by the camera in response to shooting conditions, and
in which the flash will fire automatically if the subject is poorly lit.
To
take photographs with the flash off while leaving the camera in
control of other settings, rotate the mode dial to j to select auto (flash off) mode.
Step 1: Turn the Camera On
1 Turn the camera on.
Remove the lens cap and turn the camera on. The control panel will turn on and
the display in the viewfinder will light.
2 Check the battery level.
