Using the Camera

This section provides instructions for using your new DC50 zoom

camera to take pictures. However, you should also become familiar

with the DC50 zoom camera buttons and features which are described

in the

Camera Features

section.

The DC50 zoom camera focuses on subjects from distances of

2.3 feet (70 cm) to infinity. Pictures taken with subjects closer than

2.3 feet (70 cm) may appear blurry. The close-up mode allows

you to take pictures of subjects from distances of 1.6 feet (50 cm).

For more information about focus modes, refer to the

Camera

Features

section.

The DC50 zoom camera can store 7 to 22 pictures in its internal

memory, depending on the features you select. The Images Remaining

Counter in the Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) on the back of the camera

shows you the number of pictures that you can take before the camera

is full. As you take pictures, the number in the Images Remaining

Counter decreases. When the camera memory is full, “FUL” appears

in the Images Remaining Counter. You cannot take any more pictures

until the camera memory is erased.

NOTE: For detailed information about the DC50 zoom camera’s

features, refer to the

Camera Features

section.

Pictures can also be stored on optional removable memory

cards. For information about using memory cards in the

DC50 zoom camera, refer to the
