Chapter 3: Taking Pictures Note: These instructions for taking simple point-and-shoot pictures assume that your camera is set to the default image type (One Shot), and that Instant Review is on, as well. (See "Setting the Image Type" on page 13 and "Using Instant Review" on page 33 for more information.) Note: When you remove the viewfinder cap, you can place it inside one of the snapped compartments on your camera's neck strap for safekeeping.
