SHOOTING A SNAPSHOT
If the image does not focus...
If the focus frame stays red and the operation lamp is flashing
green, it means that the image is not in focus (because the
subject is too close, etc.). Point the camera at the subject and try
to focus again.
■
Fully pressing the shutter button without
waiting for Auto Focus
You can shoot snapshots by pressing the shutter button all the
way without waiting for Auto Focus. What the camera does in
this case depends on whether Quick Shutter (page 134) is on or
off.
When Quick Shutter is turned on
High-speed Auto Focus is enabled, which helps you capture
exactly the moment you want. Quick Shutter comes in handy
when shooting a fast-moving subject.
• Some images may be out of focus when Quick Shutter is
used.
• Quick Shutter is turned on as the initial factory default setting.
When Quick Shutter is turned off
Normal Auto Focus is performed and then the image is
recorded.
• If you keep the shutter button depressed, images will continue
to be shot without focus.
• Whenever possible, take a little extra time to half-press the
shutter button in order to ensure proper focus.
