transfer the pictures or video clips to your computer and
then erase them (see Chapter 10). Or replace your
memory card with a new one (see Chapter 1).
The batteries may be low. If you see the low battery
icon, recharge or replace the batteries (see Chapter 1) or
use the optional AC adapter (see Appendix B).
The camera may be connected to your computer. When

pressing the shutter button partially to focus, then the
rest of the way to capture the image, your camera can
process pictures more quickly (see Chapter 2).
If you want to quickly take up to 37 pictures in

If you are taking a picture in Uncompressed Tiff mode,
the camera takes longer to process the image. Tiff images
create large files and can take approximately 32 seconds
to process. If you are trying to capture large, high quality
images that you can print, try setting the camera to
HyPict mode instead of Tiff mode. See page 2-10 to
disable Tiff mode and enable HyPict JPEG mode.
