Focus and Shutter Release

The camera features a two-stage shutter-release button. First, lightly press the shutter-release button about halfway, stopping when you feel resistance. Once the camera has focused, press the shutter-release button the rest of the way down to release the shutter and take a picture.

1 Focus: Press the shutter-release button halfway. If the camera is able to focus on the subject in the focus area at the center of the frame, the focus (AF●) indicator and focus area will be displayed in green. If they blink red, the camera was unable to focus. Change the composition and try again.

2 Shoot: Gently press the shutter release button the rest of the way down (moving the camera when releasing the shutter may result in blurred pictures). The flash may fire if the subject is poorly lit.

During Recording

While pictures are being recorded, the or icon will blink and the indicator lamp will blink green. Removing memory cards or batteries while these indicators are blinking or the (wait) icon is displayed could affect pictures or damage the camera or card.
