[. . . ] There is no guarantee that interference will not occur. If this camera does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the camera off and on, you may reduce the interference by the following: -- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. -- Increase the separation between the camera and the receiver. -- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television technician for help. [. . . ] Turn the on/off dial (22), counterclockwise to the ON position. Move the print-size selector (14), to the desired format (C, H, or P). Look through the viewfinder eyepiece (21) and place the auto-focus circle (g) on the subject. For a sharp picture, stand at least 2 ft (0. 60 m) from your subject. When your subject is closer than 2. 6 ft (0. 8 m) with the lens in the 30 mm position, or closer than 5 ft (1. 5 m) with the lens in the 60 mm position, compose your picture using the close framing guide (f) in the viewfinder 4. Press the shutter button (12), to take the picture. 8 Typical Print Sizes C Classic 3 1/2 x 5" or 4 x 6" (88. 9 x 127 mm or 102 x 152 mm) H Group (HDTV) 3 1/2 x 6" or 4 x 7" (88. 9 x 152 mm or 102 x 178 mm) P Panoramic 3 1/2 x 81/2" to 4 x 11 1/2" (88. 9 x 216 mm to 102 x 292. 7 mm) Using the Zoom Lens This camera has a power-zoom lens that lets you select the ideal lens-focal length for taking pictures. When you turn the camera on, it is initially set to the wide-angle position. Turn the on/off dial (22), counterclockwise to the ON position. Press the tele-mode button (10) to zoom closer to the subject or the wide-mode button (11) to zoom away from the subject. Press the shutter button (12), to take the picture. NOTE: If the lens barrel remains in the tele-mode position, it will automatically return to the wide-mode position after approximately 3 minutes. Using the Focus Lock This camera automatically focuses on whatever is within the auto-focus circle of the viewfinder eyepiece. To get a sharp photograph, make sure the auto-focus circle is on your main subject. If you want to take a picture with the subject positioned outside of the auto-focus circle, use the focus lock as follows: 1. Place the auto-focus circle (g) on the subject that you want focused in the picture. Partially depress and hold the shutter button (12) to lock the focus position. While still partially depressing the shutter button, move the camera until your subject is where you want it within the viewfinder eyepiece (21). Press the shutter button completely down to take the picture. 9 Using the Self-Timer You can include yourself in pictures by using the self-timer feature. Use a tripod (tripod socket [24]) or place the camera on another firm support. Turn the on/off dial (22), counterclockwise to the ON position. Press the self-timer/red-eye-reduction button (18) twice to move to the self-timer position. [. . . ] Nighttime View--To lighten your subject in front of a night scene, use the nighttimeview mode.
