Digital camera?

I have a digital camera and its been acting weird. I won't let you take pictures because it says on the bottom right corner that its on lock. I looked through the manual and I asked a bunch of people but they don't know how to get it off lock. Anyone


Well, I don't know what brand of camera you have.

If you are absolutely sure it's not in the manual, how about you try Googling it... or go to the brand name website. If it doesn't say anything on their website or on Google, you can try

Canon Ixus 300 HS Digital Camera Unveiled | UK Gadget and Tech ...

It may look like just another Canon compact digital camera, but the new Ixus 300 HS boasts some extra features you don’t always get, including increased manual control.

The 10 megapixel Ixus 300 HS (which stands for ‘High Sensitivity’) features an f/2.0 28mm wide angle lens with 3.8x optical zoom, or 4x digital zoom.

This is the first camera to come with Canon’s new HS system which is aimed to perform outstandingly in dark light.

In tech-speak, it combines DIGIC 4 processing with a highly sensitive 10-megapixel CMOS sensor.

The ISO can also be boosted to 6400 for photos in the depths of night, though you will only be able to power up 2.5-megapixels at this setting.

Feature-wise, the Ixus 300 HS comes with image stabilisation, smile detection, smart auto and scene modes as well as the ability to take a photo by winking at the camera. Yes, you did read that correctly.

You can view your handiwork on a 3 inch LCD preview screen on the back of the camera.

If you fancy yourself a bit of a Spielberg, movie mode on the Ixus 300 HS is something to get excited about. Capturing video at 720p HD is enhanced with a slow motion movie capture mode recording 340×240 resolution at 240fps.

Once you’re done filming, you can hook up the camera to a big screen easily via HDMI connection. You can record 4GB of video or up to an hour’s worth- whichever comes first.

Available in silver, black, white or red, this latest snapper from Canon can match any outfit and will set you back £379.
