4 . LOOKING THROUGH V IEWFINDER

In outdoor photography dur ing the dayt ime, the Konica C35-EFP takes sharp pictures of a l l subjects f rom 5 feet (1.5 meter)to i n f i n i t y .

The br ight f rame vis ib le in the v iewf inder is the actual area ofyour p ictures. When taking c lose-up pictures between 5-8 feet(1 .5-2.4 meter) , use the smal ler br ight f rame marked "Paral laxCompensat ion Marks".

When you depress the shutterrelease button slowly, and a redl ight appears in the v iewf inder, i ts ignals that there is not enoughl ight for a good exposure. Youshould now use the KonicaC35-EFP's bui l t - in "pop-up" e lec-t ronic f lash to cont inue your p ic-tu re tak ing .
