HOW TO TURN THE CAMERA ON

The power switch for the camera is located on the top of the camera at the very top right corner.  To turn the camera on, gently rotate the switch clockwise.  You will see the word "off" (located at the bottom of the switch) move to the left, and the word "on" will center itself above the index mark.  You will feel it click into place.

To turn the camera off:
                     
- Simply rotate the power switch counter-clockwise to turn it off.  The word "off" will now be centered above the index mark and nothing will appear in the viewfinder or the LCD screen.
