Shooting Mode

In this mode, all you have to do is press the shutter button and let the camera do everything else.

1 Slide the mode switch to (Shooting). In the FUNC. menu, select (Auto).

See Selecting Menus and Settings (p. 49).

You can shoot right after selecting an option. The menu displays again after the shot, allowing you to change the settings easily.

2 Press the FUNC./SET button.

The display will return to the shooting

screen and will appear on the LCD monitor.

3 Aim the camera at the subject.

4 Use the zoom lever to achieve the desired composition (relative subject size in the viewfinder) (p. 46).

5 Press the shutter button halfway (p. 47).

• Two beeps will play when the camera has finished metering, and the upper indicator beside the viewfinder will light green or orange. If the LCD monitor is on, the AF frame will appear green.

If the subject is difficult to focus on, the lower indicator beside the viewfinder will blink yellow and the beep will play one time.
