COLOR CAM
Your basic color digital camera
Slide the MODE SWITCH to the ON/STANDBY position and press the SHUTTER
BUTTON. You will hear two quick beeps and the LED will light. This lets you
know that the camera is ready to take pictures.
Frame your subject through the VIEWFINDER and press the SHUTTER BUTTON.
If there was enough light, you will hear a high-pitched beep.
If there wasn’t enough light, you will hear a low-pitched beep. To adjust
for this, slide the NIGHT SHOT switch to the ON position and take your
photo again.
If you do not press the SHUTTER BUTTON for one (1) minute, the camera will
automatically go into STANDBY mode to conserve battery power. You will hear
three (3) quick beeps from high- to low-pitched to let you know.
When you are ready to take a picture, press the SHUTTER BUTTON once to
“wake” the camera, then again to take the picture.
NOTE: You must “wake” your camera whenever it goes into STANDBY mode
before you can take a photo.
TO DOWNLOAD YOUR PHOTOS:
Plug one end of the computer cable into the PC PORT on the bottom of the
camera and connect the other end to a 9-pin serial port on your computer.
Download your photos using the included PhotoImpression™ 2000 software

NOTE: If you have performance problems, please close other software
applications.
NITE CAM
Take pictures in low- or no-light settings.
When your camera is in the ON/STANDBY mode, slide the NIGHT SHOT switch
to the ON position. This will activate the infrared flash. Unlike a regular camera,
you will NOT see a flash when you take picture in this mode.
