2 Taking Pictures
The camera is ready to take pictures when you turn it on—even if you are in
Review, Share, or Setup. (In Video mode, the camera captures video.) Before
you take a picture, make sure your picture storage location is set the way you
want it (see page 11).

Use Auto for general picture-taking. Exposure, focus, and flash are automatic.

The LCD displays a mode description. To
interrupt the description, press .
2 Use the viewfinder or LCD to frame your
subject. (To turn the LCD Liveview on or off,
press the OK button.)
3 Press the Shutter button half-way to set
the exposure and focus. (Otherwise, picture
could be too dark, too light, or blurry.)
4 When the ready light glows green, continue pressing the Shutter button
completely down to take the picture.
When the ready light blinks green, the picture is being saved; you can
still take pictures. If the ready light is red, wait until it turns green.
