Step 3 Focus and Shoot
1 Press the shutter-release button halfway.
The camera focuses on the subject at the center of
the frame. When the subject is in focus, the focus
indicator (p) is green. When the camera is unable
to focus, the focus indicator blinks red. Change the
composition and try again.
The distance between the camera and your subject
should not change while the focus is locked.
2 Press the shutter-release button the rest
of the way down to take the picture.
The picture will be recorded to the memory card or
internal memory. The flash may fire or the AF-assist
illuminator (
c 29) may light if the subject is poorly lit.
j During Recording
While pictures are being recorded, the y (wait) icon will be displayed, the indicator lamp will
blink green, and the O (recording to memory card) or M (recording to internal memory) icon
will blink. Do not turn the camera off, eject the memory card, or remove or disconnect the
power source while these icons are displayed. Cutting power or removing the memory card in
these circumstances could result in loss of data or in damage to the camera or card.
