First Steps
This chapter guides you through the steps you will take after
removing the camera from the box, from inserting the batteries
to making your first photographs and playing them back. Before
you will be able to use your camera, you will need to:
• attach the camera strap
• insert batteries or connect the AC adapter
• insert the compact flash memory card
• choose the language to be used in the setting and play-
back menus
• set the camera’s clock-calendar to the current date and
time
These tasks are detailed on the pages that follow. Once these
steps have been completed, your camera will be ready to take
photographs and play them back as described at the end of this
chapter. More detailed information on camera settings and on
playing images back may be found in the chapters following.
Attaching the Camera Strap
Attach the camera strap as shown below.
Keep the strap over your shoulder or around your wrist when
carrying the camera.
Note: Feed at least 5 cm (2
