3 Taking Pictures
• Taking a Picture
1. Turn on the camera.
2. Set the Mode selector to Capture mode (the Status LED blinks once).
3. Frame your subject using the LCD screen or viewnder.
4. Press the Shutter button to take a picture. Status LED will be on and a beep will sound. Hold the camera steady until the conclusion of the beep. The end of the beep indicates the picture has been taken.
• Setting the Picture Quality
A digital picture’s quality depends on both its resolution and the JPEG le compression that the camera applies when you take the picture. Resolution refers to the number of pixel in a digital picture. Higher resolution and less compression makes better quality which occupies more memory space. Smaller size pictures and normal quality are easier to email while larger size and ne quality are better for printing.
1. Turn on the camera.
2. Set the Mode selector to Capture mode (the Status LED blinks once).
3. Press the Quality button will alter the picture quality setting.
Fine - high resolution and ne quality are good for printing
photo.
Normal - low resolution and normal quality are efcient for email or
posting to web.
