Set the S1800 to "Landscape" mode to capture mountainous scenes in vivid color.
The Fujifilm FinePix S1800 12.2-megapixel digital camera features a pop-up flash, the option of automatic or manual operation and a large 3-inch liquid crystal display (LCD) screen. After the charged battery and memory card are installed and the camera is set up, you should run through basic operations of your S1800, such as preparation for capture, image capture, zoom control, flash mode selection, image review and image deletion.
Instructions
1. Slide the "On/Off" switch on the top-right side of the camera to the right to turn on the S1800. Twist the mode dial on top of the camera to "Auto" mode or the camera icon. Point the camera at the subject and frame her within the viewfinder, which is the little window on the back of the camera, or within the LCD screen on the back of the camera.
2. Press the shutter button halfway down. The shutter button is located on the top-right side of the S1800. When it is pressed halfway down, the camera automatically focuses on the subject and makes adjustments to properly expose the image. The camera beeps twice and an indicator light, located on the lower camera back, illuminates green once the focus is established. Fully depress the shutter button to capture the image.
3. Pull the zoom lever, which encircles the shutter button, to the right toward the "T" to zoom in on the subject. Push the zoom lever to the left toward the "W" to zoom away from the subject.
4. Press the "Flash Release" button on the left side of the flash on the top of the camera. Press the navigation button to the right toward the direction of the lightning bolt icon continuously to cycle through the flash options. The "Auto" flash mode allows the camera to determine when the flash fires according to light readings. The "Forced Flash" mode commands the flash to fire each time a picture is taken, regardless of the lighting situation. The "Slow Synchro" mode captures night time scenes and allows the background to burn in.
5. Press the "Playback" button, which is marked with a triangle inside a rectangle on the camera back, to review images. The image last captured appears on the LCD screen. Press the navigation button to the right of the monitor to the left or right to scroll backward or forward through the library.
6. Highlight the picture you wish to delete with the navigation button. Press up on the navigation button toward the trashcan icon. A confirmation message of "Erase OK?" appears on the monitor. Highlight "OK" with the navigation button and press the "Menu/OK" button in the center of the navigation button to delete the image.
