Epson PhotoPC 600 - Manual (Page 26)

Note:
Icons indicating the image quality setting , the number
of photos you can take
, and the number of photos
taken appear at the bottom of the LCD screen.
2. Hold the shutter button halfway down to lock the
auto focus. A small green circle appears on the corner
of the LCD screen, and the status light beside the
viewfinder changes from green to orange. If you
wish, you can now move your subject off-center
without altering the focus. Press the shutter button
the rest of the way down to take the photo.
3. Hold the camera still until the status light starts
flashing red and the camera beeps.
When you press the shutter button, the LCD monitor
displays the picture you took with a processing icon
in the center of the screen until the camera finishes
processing it, then the monitor returns to live preview.
Note:
❏ When battery power is low and the flash was used to take
the picture, the return to live preview may be delayed
while the camera recharges the flash. The LCD screen will
be blank during this period.
❏ The live preview image may appear to flicker when viewed
under strong fluorescent lighting, depending on the
lighting’s frequency. This is normal.
Picture-taking Range
When composing a shot through the viewfinder, you
should be at least 50 cm away from your subject. When
using the LCD monitor, you can use the camera’s macro
mode to take photos as close as 20 cm. See page 30 for
instructions.
You can take flash pictures within a range of 20 cm to
2.4 m. See page 29 for more information on using the
built-in flash.
Note:
When you are taking pictures outdoors, make sure the sun is
at your back. In very bright light (at the beach or in snow, for
example) your pictures may come out too light. However, you
can correct most over-exposure problems from your computer
using image-editing software.
