TAKING STILL PHOTOS Taking Still Photos After completing the basic setup as described in the previous pages, you are ready to take a photo: 1. With the ImageView scope securely mounted on a tripod, raise the LCD display (G) and briefly press and release the ON/OFF button-the power LED (H) lights and the startup screen is displayed, followed by the live image from the camera lens. The display also shows the battery condition, number of photos remaining, and the current resolution/quality settings. Please refer to "LCD Display:Menus and Icons" for more details. 2.

When you are ready to take a photo, be sure to move the select slider over to "Camera"otherwise your photo will be partially or entirely black. And you will then be able to use the LCD display for preview and review as you take photos. 4. Although the SNAP button on the scope may be used to take photos, it is highly recommended that you plug the supplied remote shutter cable into the remote jack (K) to obtain the steadiest results (press the 9
