Getting to Know the Camera

The Shutter-Release Button

The camera is equipped with a two-stage shutter-release button. To focus, press the shutter-release button halfway, stopping when you feel resistance. Focus will lock* while the shutter-release button is held in this position. To release the shutter and shoot, press the shutter-release button the rest of the way down.

*Focus will not lock, nor will the beep indicating that the subject is in focus sound, if Focus mode (A 57) is set to Continuous-servo AF, or if Continuous-servo AF is automatically applied with Auto-servo AF selected for moving subjects.
