Composing, Focusing, and Capturing Images

1. Hold the camera properly.

• Use your left hand to cradle the camera with your elbow propped

against your body for support.

• Grasp the camera hand grip with your right hand.

• Stand with one foot forward a half step and keep your upper body

still.

2. Center your subject in the Viewfinder and lightly press the Shutter

button.

If the subject is in focus, the focus indicator

appears in the

viewfinder.

If the camera cannot focus using autofocus, the focus indicator
blinks. Use Manual focus.

Tips:

• To capture a subject outside the focus area, shift the focus area or

use Focus Lock (see

page 8-5

).

• See

page 8-2

for situations where autofocus may produce

unexpected results.

3. Slowly press the Shutter button.

NOTE: You can capture images in a vertical orientation (see

page 5-18

)

using Advanced mode (see

page 4-2

).

NOTE: The last three digits of the image number appear on the Top Status

LCD in the Frame Counter location.
