Quick Start Basics

the type of shot the camera has detected.

• You can zoom the image, if you want.

To shoot a snapshot

2.

Half-press the shutter button to
focus the image.

When focus is complete, the camera
will beep, the back lamp will light
green, and the focus frame will turn
green.

When you half-press the shutter button, the
camera automatically adjusts exposure and
focuses on the subject it is currently pointed at.
Mastering how much pressure is required for a
half-press and a full-press of the shutter button
is an important technique for good-looking
images.

If the camera decides that it needs to shoot a series of images with Continuous Shutter
(CS), it will display “Š”. Take care to avoid any camera and subject movement until
shooting of all of the CS images is complete.
