The active toolbar provides you with shortcuts to different
items and settings before and after capturing an image or
recording a video clip. To select a toolbar item, scroll to
the item, and press the scroll key. You can also define when
the active toolbar is displayed.
The settings in the active toolbar return to the default
settings after you close the camera.

toolbar. To view the active toolbar only when you need
it, select Options > Hide toolbar. To display the toolbar
when it is hidden, press the scroll key. The toolbar is
displayed for 5 seconds.
By default, not all shortcuts are available. To add or
remove shortcuts from the toolbar, select Options >

Capture images
When capturing an image, note the following:
• Use both hands to keep the camera still.
• The quality of a digitally zoomed image is lower than
that of a nonzoomed image.
• The camera goes into the battery saving mode if there
are no keypresses for a moment. To continue
capturing images, press the capture key.
To capture an image, do the following:
1 If the camera is in the video mode, select the image
mode from the active toolbar.
2 To lock the focus on an object, press the capture key
halfway down (main camera only, not available in
landscape or sport scene.). A green locked focus
indicator appears on the display. If the focus was not
locked, a red focus indicator appears. Release the
capture key, and press it halfway down again. You can
also capture an image without locking the focus.
