The Camera Menus
This chapter supplements “Other Camera Functions” in the Pocket
Guide, exploring the options available in the menus for each
operating mode. The bulk of the shooting options available in the
M-REC menu are described in the Pocket Guide, “Taking Photo-
graphs.”
The A-REC Menu
To display the A-REC menu, turn the mode
dial to A-REC and press the MENU button.
The following options are available:
FOLDERS
Create new folders, rename or delete
existing folders, or choose the folder in
which to store subsequent photos.
LCD BRIGHT (LCD Brightness)
Adjust the brightness of the LCD monitor.
AUTO OFF
When operated on battery power, the camera automatically
enters sleep mode if no operations are performed for thirty
seconds. This option can be used to extend this limit for A-
REC and M-REC mode.
CARDFORMAT (Card Format)
Format memory cards for use in the COOLPIX 800.
Using the menus
If the menu does not appear when you press the MENU button, press the
MONITOR button until the LCD monitor comes on. Items can be
highlighted using the zoom buttons (▼▲) and selected using the shutter-
release button. To clear a menu from the screen, highlight BK and press
the shutter-release button, or press the MENU button until the menu
disappears.
