RECORDING MODE

This section covers the basic recording operation as well as advanced recording functions. To start
using the camera, read pages 20 through 29. Many of the recording functions are controlled with
menus. The menu navigation sections concisely describe how to change menu settings. Descriptions
of the settings immediately follow the navigation section.

Handling the camera

While using the viewfinder or LCD monitor, grip the camera firmly with
your right hand while supporting the camera body with your left. Keep
your elbows at your side and your feet shoulder-width apart to hold the
camera steadily.

When taking vertical pictures, hold the camera so that the flash is
above the lens with the shutter-release button to the top. Take care not
to cover the lens with your fingers or the strap.

Setting the camera to record images

Turn the camera on by pressing the main switch (1).

Slide the mode switch to the recording position (2).
