Take pictures
Before taking a picture, note the following:
●
To make lighting and colour adjustments, use the
scroll key to scroll through the active toolbar.
See
"Setup settings—adjust colour and
lighting", p. 74.
Saving the captured image may
take longer if you change the zoom, lighting, or
colour settings.
●
To free memory for new pictures, transfer files to
a compatible PC using a compatible USB data
cable, for example, and delete the files from your
device. The device informs you when the
memory is full, and asks whether you want to
change the memory in use.
When taking a picture, note the following:
●
Use both hands to keep the camera still.
●
The quality of a digitally zoomed picture is lower
than that of a nonzoomed picture.
●
The camera goes into the battery saving mode if
there are no keypresses for a moment. To
continue taking pictures, press the capture key.
