After composing the image on the monitor
screen, press the shutter button about half
way and hold it there.
• The camera’s Auto Focus feature automatically fo-
cuses the image.
• The operation lamp lights green and the Auto Focus
Frame in the monitor screen turns green when the
Auto Focus operation is complete.

or light sensor with your fingers.
5.
After confirming that the Auto Focus operation
is complete (the operation lamp lights green),
press the shutter button all the way down to
record the image.
• Pressing the shutter button releases the shutter, even
if Auto Focus was unsuccessful and the image is out
of focus.
• After you record an image, the camera takes a few
seconds to store it in memory. If you try to change to
the Playback Mode while a save operation is in
progress, the message “Press DISP to cancel save”
appears on the monitor screen. Pressing DISP at this
time cancels the save operation.
• Use of a tripod and the wired remote controller is rec-
ommended for slow shutter speeds and telephoto
shots to avoid blurring of the image due to camera
movement.
• Carefully press the shutter button, taking care not to
move the camera as you do.
