SETUP MODE
LCD MONITOR BRIGHTNESS
The brightness of the LCD monitor can be set in five levels from 1 (low) to 5 (high). When this option
is selected, the live image is displayed behind the menu. As each setting is highlighted, the monitor
will adjust accordingly; the controller must be pressed to set the highlighted level.
FORMATTING COMPACTFLASH CARDS
The formatting function is used to erase all data on a CompactFlash card. Before formatting 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 format 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 the controller to return to the setup menu.
A CompactFlash card used in another camera may have to be formatted 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.
When a CompactFlash card is formatted, all data is erased.
