The front view, rear view, bottom view and top view of

the digital camera are shown below. Please take a

moment to review these illustrations to familiarize yourself

with the terms used in the rest of this manual.

FrontView

Digital Camera User’s Manual

1. Shutter Button: Press to take photos and

select options from the menus.

2. Built-in Flash: The flash allows the camera to

take pictures in low light conditions and

can also be used as a fill-in flash for bright

conditions that may have unwanted

shadows.

3. Light Sensor: The digital camera can

automatically detect the ambient light

level and determine whether or not the

flash is needed. The light measurements are

made from this sensor. Take care not to

block the sensor with your finger while

taking a picture.

4. Viewfinder: The viewfinder can be used to

estimate what the picture frame will

include. The actual picture is taken from the

lens not the viewfinder.

5. Self-Timer LED: When the mode dial is set to

Self-Timer and a picture is taken, this LED will

blink for ten seconds and then the camera

will take a picture.

6. Lens: The lens focuses the light onto the

digital image capturing circuitry. For the

best picture quality, care should be taken

to make sure it remains free of dust,

fingerprints, and scratches.
