Using The Main Menu
As mentioned earlier in this manual, the Instant Replay is already set for its highest available resolution and quality
right out of the box. Exposure, white balance, ISO and other variables are set automaticallly. This means that you
will get good results for most subjects and locations without needing to go into the menus and changing any set-
tings. However, we recommend that you become familiar with the available options so that you can improve your
photos if, for example, you decide they are coming out too dark (common for snow scenes with most cameras),
or too green (under some fluorescent lights). The main menu is organized into three groups, plus Exit. Press the
“OK/Menu” button to see these groups. Use the up and down arrow buttons to select a group, then press “OK”
again to see the items within that group.
Using The Main Menu

As an example of how to navigate through and use the menus, try going into the Setup menu to find (and change for
your location, if desired) the menu language and date/time settings:
1) With the power on and LCD raised, press the OK/Menu button to see the Main Menu groups.
2) Press the Down arrow button twice to highlight the Set up icon, then press “OK” again.
3) You can see 3 items at a time in the set up group menus. Keep pressing the Down arrow button until the item
“Language” is highlighted (you will need to press “Down” seven times-”Language” is on the third screen)
4) Press “OK” to see the available Language settings. This sets the language used in all menu screens. The default is
English. To change it if you prefer, press the Down arrow until your language is highlighted, then press “OK”. To stay
in English, just press OK since it is already highlighted. Once you confirm a selection by pressing OK, you are back
in the Setup group menu. As you will notice, pressing the Left button now will Exit all menus and return to the live
preview-but let’s set the date and time while you are still in the Setup menu.
5) With Language still highlighted, press the Down arrow button twice to highlight to “Time date”. Notice that the
menu “wraps around”, which saved pressing “Up” six time to get back to the same place. Press OK to enter the time
& date setting screen.
6) Use the Left/Right buttons to move to highlight the month, date, year or time field, and use the Up/Down buttons
to change the selected field to the correct setting. The “up & down arrow” icon on the top row, far left, allows you
to change the date format when highlighted (M/D/Y, D/M/Y, etc) When finished setting the date/time, press OK to
confirm your setting and return to the Setup menu
7) Press the Left arrow button to return to the live preview LCD display.
The next few pages provide a complete list of all the items and settings available in the Main Menu groups, along with
descriptions of their function. Follow the same procedures you used in the example above to move around in the menu
screens to highlight and change any of these settings to suit your personal preferences or needs.
