Hints for taking pictures

Muting the operation sounds
i The operation sounds that are generated, for example, when the shutter
button, MENU button or SET button is pressed, can be muted (page 101).
Where is the image data saved?
i All the image and sound data is recorded in the camera's internal memory
or on the card installed in the camera.
i When a card is installed in the camera, the data is recorded on the card. If
no card is installed, the data is recorded in the camera's internal memory.
Taking pictures in backlight conditions...
i When taking pictures with the light coming from behind the subject, due to
the characteristics of the CCD, light lines or ghost patterns (flare
phenomenon) may appear in the captured image. In this situation, it is
recommended that you avoid taking pictures with the subject lit from
behind.
While the image data is being recorded...
i While the access light is flashing quickly, the image data is being written to
the memory, during which time it is not possible to capture another image.
Another image can be captured after the access light turns off. However,
even when the access light is flashing, depending on the camera's internal
memory remaining capacity, in some cases the next image can be
captured about 2 seconds after shooting.
