Shooting basics
Taking still pictures
You can take still pictures using either the viewfinder or the monitor. Both
methods are easy as all you have to do is to press the shutter button. The
recorded picture will be stored on the card if you have inserted one, or in the
internal memory if you have not inserted a card.
Taking still pictures using the viewfinder

Slide the lens barrier open until it clicks.

subject is less than 60 cm/2 ft, select the
macro mode. “Taking close-up pictures

locked as long as the shutter button is
