9. REVIEW YOUR SHOTS

One of the greatest features of a digital camera is its ability to give us instant feed-

back. By reviewing your images on the camera's LCD screen, you can instantly tell if

you got your shot. This visual feedback allows you to make adjustments on the ﬂ y

and make certain that all of your adjustments are correct before moving on.

When you ﬁ rst press the shutter release button, your camera quickly processes your

shot and then displays the image on the LCD display. The default setting for that

display is only four seconds, which is why I

change my review times (as discussed earlier).

Since we have already adjusted the auto off

timer, let's check out some of the other visual

information that will really help you when

shooting.

There are two default display modes that

give you different amounts of information

while reviewing your photos. The default

view (Figure 1.5) simply displays your image

along with the image ﬁ le name, date, time,

and image quality setting.
