Notes About Saving Images or Movies
The indicator showing the number of exposures remaining or the indicator showing the
remaining recording time flashes while images or movies are being saved. Do not open
the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover or remove the battery or memory
card while an indicator is flashing. Doing this could result in loss of data, or in damage to the
camera or the memory card.

The Auto Off Function
When no operations are performed for about one minute, the screen turns off, the camera
enters standby mode, and then the power-on lamp flashes. The camera turns off after
remaining in standby mode for about three minutes.
To turn the screen back on while the camera is in standby mode, perform an operation
such as pressing the power switch or shutter-release button.

When Using a Tripod
We recommend using a tripod to stabilize the camera in the following situations:
- When shooting in dim lighting with the flash mode set to W (off )
- When the zoom is at a telephoto position
When using a tripod to stabilize the camera during shooting, set Vibration reduction to
Off in the setup menu (A112) to prevent potential errors caused by this function.
Using the Flash
In situations where a flash is needed, such as in dark
locations or when the subject is backlit, press the
m (flash pop-up) button to raise the flash.
When not using the flash, gently push to lower the
flash until it clicks shut.
Recording Movies
Display the shooting screen and press the
b (e movie-record) button to start recording a
movie. Press the b (e) button again to end
recording.
