Capture (record) display
It's worth noting that the 935's live view display isn't as smooth or
as fast as most digital cameras. It seems to have a relatively slow refresh
rate (15 fps?) and can often 'stutter' (be frozen for a second) if the
camera is busy (notably after half-pressing the shutter release to AF
/ AE).
 |
Here you can see a typical live view in Auto exposure mode. Overlaid
information in this case is macro focus mode, flash canceled, battery
status, 190 frames remaining, three star image quality, 5 MP size.
|
 |
 |
| Half press the shutter release and the camera will attempt
to auto focus and lock the exposure. In this case AF was successful
as indicated by the green AF bracket. The exposure is displayed at
the bottom of the screen, and in this case a shake warning icon because
of the slow shutter speed. |
After taking the shot (fully depressing the shutter
release) a review image is shown of the image being written to the
SD card, you can at this stage press the OK button to delete the image
(click
here) before it is finalized. |
 |
 |
| Here is an example of aperture priority mode, there
are actually only two selectable apertures at any focal length. At
wide angle these are F2.6 or F5.0 and at telephoto F4.8 or F9.0. Half
press the shutter release to see the metered shutter speed. |
An example of one of the three scene modes, in this
case portrait scene mode which will attempt to use large apertures
to produce a short depth of field and 'blur' the background. |
 |
 |
| An example of movie record mode.
The 935 has a unique method for initiating movie recording, a dedicated
'movie start' button which means you can capture a movie in any exposure
mode. |
When changing exposure compensation
(left or right arrow buttons) the current compensation is displayed
on the screen along with a the 'EXPOSURE COMPENSATION' label. |
 |
 |
| Here you can see how the capture
menu (described on the next page) appears over the live view image. |
Here's an example of Manual preset
white balance, select 'Manual' from the white balance menu, aim at
a white object and half-press the shutter release to take a white
balance reading. |
Information display
 |
When changing focus mode or flash mode settings (buttons on the
top of the camera) the LCD monitor briefly displays this information
'summary' screen which gives you an instant overview of the current
camera setup. Here we have animated it as it would be if you were
scrolling through the flash modes.
|
Play display
 |
 |
| This is the default Play
mode display, frame count is indicated in the bottom right of the
image. Use the left and right cursors on the 4-way controller to browse
through images. |
This was difficult to capture
as it takes less than a second. The 935 uses a 'smooth scroll' between
images, sliding the next image on from the left or the right and pushing
the current image off the screen. |
 |
 |
| Press the OK button to
display the play menu over the image. |
Here you can see an audio
clip being recorded and 'attached' to the image taken. |
 |
 |
| Selecting delete from the
menu displays this option page, you can delete this image, all images
or format the SD card. |
Selecting magnify from
the menu switches to this 4x magnification view, use the 4-way controller
to scroll around the magnified image. |
 |
 |
| Select the Image Info menu
option to display detailed information overlaid on the image view. |
Pressing the Image Mark
button allows you to mark the image for printing (one or two copies)
and/or transmission by e-mail. |
