Taking Pictures

Your camera is equipped with both an optical viewfinder and a 1.5" LCD monitor to compose images. Taking images using
the optical viewfinder will conserve battery power. If your batteries are low, it is recom-mended that you only compose
images by using the viewfinder. Using the LCD monitor, you can compose images more accurately, but at the cost of battery
consumption. The LCD monitor must be used when Digital Zoom is used.
Note
• Every time you press the DISP button, the LCD monitor display cycles in the order of Normal Symbol Dis-
play, No Display, and LCD Monitor Off.
• To save power consumption, turn the LCD monitor display Off.

Using the viewfinder

Turn the camera on by pressing the POWER button.
2.

3.
Put the subject of your photo right in the middle and press the shutter
release button half-way.
Once focused, the viewfinder LED glows green and a red symbol appears on the LCD mon-
itor. If the automatic focusing fails, the viewfinder LED blinks.
