SHOOTING A SNAPSHOT
If the image does not focus...
If the focus frame stays red and the operation lamp is flashing, 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.

■ Using Quick Shutter
Pressing the shutter button all the way down without waiting at
the halfway point shoots the image using Quick Shutter (page
102). Quick Shutter lets you record right away, so you don’t miss
those special moments waiting for Auto Focus.
• Quick Shutter focuses much quicker than normal Auto Focus.
It comes in handy when shooting a fast-moving subject. It also
eliminates worries of spoiled shots when you ask someone
else to record and image for you, and they press the shutter
button all the way without waiting for Auto Focus.
• Quick Shutter is turned on as the initial factory default setting.
In cases when you want to take a little time for accurate focus,
turn off Quick Shutter.
