Using the LCD Monitor
Using the LCD monitor can help you to compose an image while taking pictures, to replay recorded images/
video clips or to adjust menu settings.
The mode icons, text and numbers that are displayed on the LCD monitor may vary according to the current
settings.
1. Rotate the mode dial to your desired scene (Auto/Program/Scene/Tv/Av/
Manual/Video) and power on your camera.
2. Compose your image in the LCD monitor.
3. Press the shutter button.
In Capture mode, pressing the button will set LCD Off and LCD On.
Press OK button once to hide the OSD menu, press twice to turn the LCD off, press again to turn the LCD
and OSD on.
The LCD monitor darkens in strong sunlight or bright light. This is not a malfunction.
Using the LCD monitor for an extended period of time will decrease the number of images you can take. To
conserve battery power and therefore increase the number of pictures you can take, we recommend that
you turn the LCD monitor off and use the viewfinder instead.
In [ ] Video mode, the LCD monitor can be turned off. However, in Playback mode the LCD monitor
cannot be turned off.
The LCD monitor must be on when the Digital Zoom is to be used.
