TAKING PICTURES
Place the subject in the viewfinder’s focus
frame or centre the subject on the LCD
monitor.
• Use focus lock for off-centre subjects (p. 28).
• When holding the camera, make sure your
fingers do not cover the lens.
BASIC RECORDING OPERATION
Press the shutter-release button partway
down to activate the autofocus and
exposure systems.
• The green focus lamp will glow to confirm
that the subject is in focus. If the camera can
not focus on the subject, the green focus
lamp will blink. Repeat steps 1 and 2 until the
focus lamp glows steadily.
• The orange flash lamp will blink if the flash is
charging, and will glow steadily when the
flash is charged and ready. While the flash is
charging, the shutter will not release.
Press the shutter-release button all the
way down to take the picture.
• The LCD monitor will briefly display the
captured image.
• While the image is being written to the
CompactFlash card, the green focus lamp will
blink slowly. To prevent the loss of image
data, do not remove the CompactFlash card
or the AC adaptor from the camera until the
image has been saved. The focus lamp will
go out when this operation has been
completed.
