2Taking Pictures
The camera is ready to take pictures when you turn it on—even if you are in
Review, Share, or Setup. (In Video mode, the camera captures video.) Before
you take a picture, make sure the storage location is set the way you want it
(see page 12).

Take a Picture

1Turn the Mode dial to Auto .
The camera screen displays the mode
name and description.
2Use the viewfinder or camera screen to
frame your subject. (Press the OK button to
turn on Liveview. See page18.)
IMPORTANT: Liveview significantly
reduces battery life.
3Press the Shutter button to take the picture.
When the ready light blinks green, the
picture is being saved; you can still take
pictures. If the ready light is red, wait
until it turns green.
See Changing Picture-Taking Options,
page 22.
