Turning On the Camera


  • To turn on the camera, rotate the Mode dial.

    Turn clockwise for still capture modes.

    Turn counterclockwise for video mode.

    The mode light blinks while the camera performs a self-check, then glows when the camera is ready to take pictures or videos.

    The EVF (electronic viewfinder) or the LCD screen turns on, depending on which display was last used (see Changing the Display, EVF or LCD).

    The name and description of the capture mode you chose is displayed on the screen for 3 seconds.

    To identify the status icons that appear on the screen, see Checking Camera and Picture Status .
