ASIC RECORDING
Press the shutter-release button all the way down to take the
picture.
The example uses auto recording. Except for movie recording, the
operation for other exposure modes is the same. Automatic Digital Subject
Program Selection is only available in the auto recording mode.
Place the subject anywhere within the focus frame. Make sure
the subject is within the focus range of the lens (p. 24). For
very close subjects, use the macro function (p. 35).
BASIC RECORDING OPERATION
Press the shutter-release button partway down to lock the
focus and exposure. An AF sensor (a) is displayed to indicate
the subject. Automatic Digital Subject Selection will choose
the appropriate exposure mode, see the facing page.
The focus signal (b) on the monitor will confirm focus lock. If
the focus signal is red, the camera was unable to locate the
subject. Repeat the previous steps until the signal is white.
The shutter speed (c) and aperture (d) appears and turns
black to indicate the exposure is locked.
