Checking the Battery Icon

Before you take pictures, check the battery icon on the control panel.
The icon shows how much battery power you have left, in the following
four stages:
Full battery power (or AC adapter in use)
Battery power is decreasing
Battery power is almost out
Change batteries
The battery icon is not precise, so you should use it only as a guide to
remaining power. Note that several factors can affect battery life,
including the surrounding temperature and the type of batteries you use.
Low temperatures (especially below 50° F) will weaken your batteries.
See page 1-2 for information about changing batteries.

Snapping the Shutter

Follow these steps to take a picture:
1
Turn the camera on and wait until the green standby light stops
flashing.
2
Look straight through the viewfinder and center your subject.
3
Slowly press the shutter button.
4
Hold the camera still until the standby light starts flashing and the
camera beeps.

green standby light
The flashing light indicates that the image is captured and the camera is
processing it. (If you try to press the shutter button again, you'll hear an
"error" beep.) When the light stops flashing, the image is saved. Saved
images remain in memory for up to a year, even when the camera is
turned off and the batteries are removed.
You can take another picture when the standby light stops flashing. If the
light flashes longer each time you take a picture, your batteries are
becoming weaker.
