4	Brace your elbows against your sides and hold the
	camera with both hands, Position the thumb of your
	right hand so that it is handy for using the zoom.
	;t The image will be blurred if the camera moves when taking
	the picture (camera shake). Use a tripod to avoid camera
	shake, particularly for shots in dark locations when the flash
	is set to Suppressed flash mode.
	_There	may	be some	unevenness	in the	brightness	at the
	lower edge of the LCD monitor. This is normal and does not
	indicate a fault. This does not affect the photographed image.
5	Take care to hold the camera so that your fingers
	or the	strap	do not	cover the	lens,	flash or	flash

control sensor. If the lens, flash or flash control sensor is obscured by your fingers or the camera

strap you may not be able to obtain the correct

brightness (exposure) for your shot.

_ Check that the lens [s clean. If it is dirty, clean the lens as described on P.107.

7	Frame the shot so that the subject fills the entire AF
	(Auto Focus) frame.

Pressing

the

Shutter

button

down

halfway,

the

camera

emits

a

short

double-beep

and focuses

on

your

subject.

At

that

point

the

AF

frame

on

the

screen

becomes

smaller

and

the

camera

sets

the

shutter

speed

and

aperture

(The

indicator

lamp

(green)

stops

blinking

and

remains

lit).

_;t The image shown on the screen before taking the shot may

differ in its brightness, color, etc. from the image actually recorded. If necessary, play back the recorded image to check it (-P.29).

_t If the camera does not emit a short double-beep and ".tAF" appears on the screen, the camera cannot focus.

;t Pressing the Shutter button down halfway, the image on the screen freezes temporarily. However, this image is not the recorded image.

_;t If "!AF" appears on the screen (e.g. the shot is too dark for

the camera to focus), try standing about 2 m (6.6 ft.) from the subject to take the picture.
