3. Taking pictures

To turn the camera ON, lightly press the shutter release button.

Hold the camera firmly, look in the viewfinder and adjust the zoom setting to

the desired image size.

3. Keep the subject at least 1.90m (6.2 ft.) away from the camera at the wideangle setting and 2.3m (7.5 ft.) at the telephoto setting for sharp pictures.

Fully press the shutter release button to take pictures.

Note:

As no power switch is provided with this camera, the camera is

activated everytime you press the shutter release button halfway, move the zoom lever or slide the Flash/Macro switch down.

Guide to zooming (Fig. F)

The 35mm zoom setting provides wide-angle coverage, suitable for group portraits and landscapes. The 60mm telephoto zoom setting covers a narrower angle of view, ideal for portraiture or any subject you cannot get close to. To activate the zoom, move the zoom lever to "GO" for telephoto or "rng" for

wide-angle view.

4. Flash photography

Under dim lighting conditions, the low light warning LED (red) next to the

(Fig.

viewfinder lights up when the shutter release button is lightly pressed. Next, slide the Flash/Macro switch downward to turn the Flash switch ON.

When the Flash ready-light turns ON, fully press the shutter release button.

Before taking a flash picture, make sure that the subject is within the flash shooting range for the film speed in use (see table).

Caution:

Red-eye reduction

In flash photography, the subject's eyes sometimes appear bright red in color pictures (white in b/w ones) due to a phenomenon known as "red-eye." To counteract this effect, your camera comes with a red-eye reduction lamp. When the shutter release button is pressed lightly, the red-eye reduction lamp

lights up, causing the size of the subject's pupil to grow smaller, thus reducing the possibility of red-eye effect.

To activate red-eye reduction lamp, be sure to turn the Flash/Macro switch ON first. Then hold down the shutter release button halfway for a few seconds before pressing the button all the way to fire the flash.

5. Macro (close-up) photography

This camera is designed to take close-up pictures of a subject from 0.55 to

0.95m (1.8 to 3.1 ft.) at the wide-angle setting, and 0.60 to 0.85m (2.0 to 2.8 ft.) at the telephoto setting away from the camera.

Set the Flash/Macro switch to "ON" and wait until the flash ready-light turns ON.

Compose your subject within the viewfinder.

3. While holding the Flash/Macro switch all the way down, fully depress the shutter release button.

Important: Depending on the ISO number of the film in use, the effective

close-up range for close-up picture varies. (See the table on

page 5.)

Caution:

For macro photography, make sure that your subject is within the

shaded area of the viewfinder as shown in Fig. H

of the viewfinder will be omitted; only the shaded portion is exposed.
