Chapter 2:
Taking pictures and recording video clips
Taking still pictures
You can take a picture almost any time the camera is on, regardless of what is being shown on the Image Display. For example, if a menu is currently displayed when you press the Shutter button, the menu will be canceled, and the camera will take a picture.
To take a still picture:
1Frame the subject for your
picture in the viewfinder (see page 28).
2 Hold the camera steady and press the Shutter button halfway down. The camera measures and then locks the focus and exposure.
3Press the Shutter button all the way down to take the picture. You will hear a shutter click when the camera takes the picture.
After the picture is taken, the image is displayed for several seconds in Instant Review on the Image Display. You can delete the image during Instant Review by pressing the OK button. You can use Playback to review the pictures you have taken. See Using playback on page 46.
