Basic Shooting and Playback Operations
Using the Snap-back Zoom
When the subject is lost at the telephoto zoom
position, press the p (snap-back zoom)
button to temporarily widen the angle of view
so that you can frame the subject more easily.
While pressing the p button, frame the
subject inside the framing border of the
shooting screen. To widen the angle of
view further, move the zoom control
toward f while pressing the p button.
Release the p button to return to the
original zoom position.
Snap-back zoom is not available during
movie recording.
The Shutter-release Button
Display the shooting screen and press the b (e
movie-record) button to start recording a movie.
Press the b (e) button again to end recording.
Press halfway
To set focus and exposure (shutter speed and
aperture value), press the shutter-release button
lightly until you feel a slight resistance. Focus and
exposure remain locked while the shutter-release
button is pressed halfway.
Press all the
way
Press the shutter-release button all the way to
release the shutter and take a picture.
Do not use force when pressing the shutter-
release button, as this may result in camera shake
and blurred images. Press the button gently.
