24 Taking Photos
Focusing
The camera’s viewfinder has a magnification of 1.0x, which allows you
to keep both eyes open when focusing on your subject.
When focusing, keep your eye in the center of the rangefinder eyepiece
for the best result.
To focus on a subject, rotate the lens focusing ring until the
double-image converges in the center of the bright-line frame.
If a subject has a distinct vertical line (i.e., a tree or a tower), rotate the
focus ring until the lines merge into a single continuous line. This
usually produces sharper images as straight lines are easier to focus on.
Releasing the Shutter
When you are ready to shoot, gently press the shutter release button.
You should hear a clacking sound that indicates the shutter release.
Note:
If you set NR (Noise Reduction) to Hi (High) in the Film Setting screen and
set the exposure at more than 2 seconds, noise reduction is automatically
performed after taking a picture. Do not turn off the camera until the memory
card access light goes off. Otherwise, the image data may be lost or damaged,
or make the memory card unusable.
