the exposure and focus, then continue

NOTE: Liveview quickly depletes battery power.

Liveview and use the Viewfinder to frame
your subject.

Using the Viewfinder
When using the viewfinder to capture close
subjects (3 feet or less), keep the subject
below the parallax marks. For even more
accurate framing results, turn on Liveview.
