TAKING PHOTOGRAPHS Basic Setting Your camera is equipped with both an optical viewfinder and a 1.6" full color TFT LCD monitor to compose images. Taking images by using the optical viewfinder will conserve more battery power. If your batteries' level is in low condition, it is recommended to compose images by using the viewfinder. The LCD monitor can help you accurately compose the pictures and examine all the details, but using it may also consume more battery power. However, always use the LCD monitor for MACRO shots to avoid define parallax effects (the apparent displacement or the difference in apparent direction of an object as seen from two differen points not on a straight line with the object). Using the Viewfinder Using the viewfinder helps you to compose images and adjust the subject in the crisp focus. 1. Turn the camera on by sliding the POWER switch. 2. Set the mode dial base on the desired scenery (Manual, Auto, Macro, Portrait, Landscape, Night Scene or Sports). 3. Compose your picture in the viewfinder. 4. Press the shutter button. The LED indicator blinks green while the camera is processing a captured image. 28
