Operating the shutter release button

The shutter release button has two working positions.

Not pressed Pressed halfway	Pressed fully
(first position)	(second position)

Pressing it down halfway (first position) turns on the viewfinder and LCD panel indicators and the autofocus system operates. Pressing it fully (second position) takes the picture.

• Press the shutter release button gently when taking a picture to prevent camera shake.

•Practice pressing the shutter release button halfway to learn where the first position is.

•The viewfinder indicators stay on while shutter release button is pressed halfway. The indications stay on for about 10 seconds (default setting) while the exposure metering timer is on after the button is released. (p.27, p.99)
