First Steps : Taking Your First Photograph
Note: COOLPIX 300 uses a parallax viewfinder with a field of view
which is between 80% and 85% of that of the lens. The viewfinder will
therefore show an area slightly smaller than that which will appear in the
actual photograph. At distances of between 14 and 23 cm (5.5˝ – 9˝),
objects centered in viewfinder will appear off-center in the actual
photograph. Use the macro close-up field of view when framing
photographs in the viewfinder from a short distance.
Step 7 - Half-press the shutter release button
Pressing the shutter release button down halfway causes a beep to sound
once. The READY lamp will flash while the camera adjusts its auto
exposure settings and charges the flash.
half-press
Note: You can skip this step when framing photographs in the viewfinder,
as the camera will automatically charge the flash and adjust its auto
exposure settings whenever the ENTER key is pressed.
