SETUP MODE
SETUP MENU - BASIC
The basic section of the setup menu allows changes to be made to the operation of the
camera as well as the ability to format CompactFlash cards.
LCD MONITOR BRIGHTNESS
The brightness of the LCD monitor can be set in five levels from 1 (low) to 5 (high). As
each setting is highlighted, the monitor will adjust accordingly; the controller must be
pressed to set the highlighted level.
FORMATTING COMPACTFLASH CARDS
When a CompactFlash card is formatted, all data on the card is erased.
The formatting function is used to erase all data on a CompactFlash card. Before for-
matting a CompactFlash card, copy the data to a computer or storage device. Locking
images will not protect them from being deleted when the card is formatted. Always for-
mat the CompactFlash card using the camera; never use a computer to format a card.
When the format option is selected and entered, a confirmation screen will appear.
Choosing “Yes” will format the card, choosing “No” will cancel the formatting operation.
A screen will appear to indicate the card has been formatted; press “OK” to return to
the setup menu.
If the card-not-recognized message appears, the inserted card in the camera may need
to be formatted. A CompactFlash card used in another camera may have to be format-
ted before being used. If the unable-to-use-card message appears, the card is not
compatible with the camera and cannot be formatted.
AUTO POWER SAVE
The camera will turn off the data panel to conserve battery power if no operation is
made within a certain period. The length of this period can be changed to 1, 3, 5, or 10
minutes. The auto-power-save option will not affect the display period of LCD monitor;
it will shut down after 30 seconds. To restore the displays when they shut down, simply
press the shutter-release button.
When the camera is connected to the computer, the auto-power-save period is set to
ten minutes. This period cannot be changed.
BEEP
The audio signal can be turned off or on. The sound effects setting simulates a film
camera when the shutter is released.
LANGUAGE
The language used in the menus can be changed.
