PHOTOGRAPHY MODE
[ ] Auto Mode
Auto photography mode is perhaps the most commonly used photography
mode. Images can be captured simply because the exposure (the
combination of shutter speed and aperture setting) is determined
automatically to suit the photographic conditions.
You can use either the optical viewfinder and/or the 2.5" LCD monitor to
compose your images. Capturing images using the optical viewfinder will
conserve the battery power. If the battery power is low, it is recommended
that you only compose images using the viewfinder. Using the LCD monitor,
you can compose images more accurately, but at the cost of the battery
consumption. Always use the LCD display for close-up macro shots.
Using the Optical Viewfinder
Make sure that the battery and SD card are inserted before capturing images.
1. Press the POWER button to turn on the ViviCam
8300s.
2. Slide the mode switch to [ ] and set the
mode dial to [ ].
3. Compose your image in the viewfinder.
Turn the “diopter adjustment dial” until the
image appears clearly within the viewfinder.
