Press the shutter-release button half-way down.
The camera adjusts the focus automatically. When the subject is focused,
the focus lamp (green) lights up.
When the focus lamp (green) blinks, follow the operation from step 3 again.
When the flash will fire, the flash lamp (red) lights up.
When the flash lamp (red) blinks slowly (about 2 times in a second), the
shutter speed becomes slow. Taking a picture in this mode may cause an
image blurred. We recommend you take pictures after fixing the camera on
the tripod.

Press the shutter-release button the rest of the way down.
• If the flash lamp (red) blinks when the shutter-release button is pressed
all the way down, the flash is being charged. When the shutter-release
button is kept pressed in this status, the shutter is released at the same time
when the flash is charged.
• The captured image is displayed on the LCD monitor and is recorded on the
CF card. While the image is recorded, the focus lamp (green) blinks slowly
(about 2 times in a second) and "RECORDING" blinks on the LCD monitor
slowly. Be sure not to open the battery-chamber door or remove the CF card
until the recording is complete. Otherwise, the data on the CF card may be
damaged or lost.

shutter-release but-
ton, the button stops
