Pressing the Shutter Button

Complete formatting.

When formatting ends, [Memory card formatting complete] will appear on the

screen.

Press the m button.

Formatting or erasing data on a memory card merely changes the file management information on the card and does not ensure its contents are completely erased. Be careful when transferring or disposing of a memory card. When disposing of a memory card, take precautions such as physically destroying the card to prevent personal information leaks.

The total capacity of the memory card displayed in the formatting screen may be less than indicated on the memory card.

Perform a low-level format (p. 167) of the memory card when the camera does not operate properly, the recording/reading speed of a memory card has dropped, when continuous shooting speed slows down, or when movie recording stops suddenly.

Pressing the Shutter Button

To take images that are in focus, be sure to first press the shutter button lightly (halfway) to focus, then press fully to shoot.

Press halfway (Press lightly to focus).

Press lightly until the camera beeps twice and AF frames appear where the camera focused.

Press fully (Press fully to shoot).

The camera plays the shutter sound and

takes the shot.

Since the shot is being taken while the shutter sound plays, be careful not to move the camera.
