5—Shooting

Press the shutter-release button smoothly all the way down to take a photograph.

While the photograph is being recorded to the memory card, the card access lamp will light. Do not eject the memory card, turn the camera off, remove the battery, or unplug the AC adapter (available separately) until the lamp has stopped blinking. Removing the card or cutting power in these circumstances could result in loss of data.

Your camera is equipped with a combined electronic (CCD) and mechanical shutter. This shutter operates on a different principle from the mechanical shutters found in film cameras. As a result, the interval between the sounds made by the shutter and mirror will not decrease past a certain point, even at high shutter speeds.

Using this setting, you can choose whether images are displayed automatically in the LCD monitor while they are recorded to the memory card, or if images are only displayed when the button is pressed.
