too far, press
. A zoom
indicator (see page 44) appears
on the Image Display as you
zoom in and out, and the
resolution number on the right side of the screen indicates
the resolution at which the image will be captured.
3. When the image you want fills the yellow frame, press the
Shutter button halfway down to lock focus and exposure,
and then press it all the way down to take the picture.
