to suit almost any subject or scene. This chapter describes how to take 
pictures with the most commonly used standard settings (the initial 
factory default settings).

The camera turns on and is ready to take still pictures. In this manual, 
this is called Still Picture Capture Mode.

information on the display.

indicates the zone of automatic focusing.

the Zoom/w/x button to the left or right (p.71).
