Taking pictures
To take pictures using your Digital Camera:
• Turn the camera on.
• In low light conditions, check to make sure the flash is ready. Be sure the Flash is set to
AUTO.
• Use the color LCD display to capture the preferred image. The color LCD comes on
automatically in preview mode when the camera is turned on. Press the LCD button again
to view preview mode with icons.
• Hold the camera still and press the shutter button.
• The LCD will indicate when the picture has been successfully taken by increasing the
number on the display. If the sound feature is turned on, one short beep indicates that a
picture is taken.
About Autobrite® technology
The camera offers the benefits of a technology known as Autobrite. This technology
automatically adjusts the exposure and captures crisp details in scenes where both dim and
bright lighting conditions are present, such as glare or backlighting. Most existing digital
cameras produce washed out or silhouetted images under such conditions. We suggest you
try to avoid taking pictures pointing directly at bright objects (such as the sun), due to the
potential impact of extremely bright lighting on image quality and lens flare.
Autobrite is proprietary to SMaL Camera Technologies, Inc. of Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA.
Low light lock-out
Low light lock-out is a feature that prevents the camera from taking pictures in low light
settings when the flash is not ready. When low light lock-out is enabled the camera will give
a warning beep – even if the sound is off.
Note: To override low light lock-out, continue holding the shutter button for 1 second after
the warning beep.
