the frame.
When the subject is in focus, the focus indicator
(p) is green.

Shutter-Release Button
The camera features a two-stage shutter-release button. To set focus and exposure,
press the shutter-release button halfway, stopping when you feel resistance. Focus and
exposure lock while the shutter-release button is held in this position. To release the
shutter and take a picture, press the shutter-release button the rest of the way down.
Do not use force when pressing the shutter-release button, as this may result in camera
shake and blurred pictures.
