INTRODUCTION

•Business Shot (page 91)

Business Shot automatically corrects rectangular shapes

when recording the image of a business card, document,

whiteboard, or similar subjects from an angle.

•Coupling Shot and Pre-shot (pages 87, 89)

Coupling Shot lets you combine two subjects into a single

image, while Pre-shot lets you add a subject to a

can create images that include you and your friend, even

if you are the only two people around.

The self-timer can be set up to repeat three times,

ever before.

•World Time (page 138)

location. You can select from among 162 cities in 32 time

zones.

You can also have a specific image appear on the

monitor screen when the alarm time is reached.

•Album Function (page 175)

HTML files are generated automatically to create an

album of recorded images. Album contents can be viewed

and printed using a standard Web browser. Images can

also be incorporated into Web pages quickly and easily.

•Calendar screen (page 115)

A simple operation displays a full-month calendar on the

camera’s monitor screen. Each day of the full-month

calendar shows a thumbnail of the first file recorded for

that date, which helps to make searching for a particular

file quicker and easier.
