The Basics of Shooting and Playback

Step 4 Focus and Shoot

1 Press the shutter-release button

halfway to adjust the focus.

• “Pressing halfway“ is the action of pressing the

shutter-release button slightly until you feel

resistance and then holding in that position.

• When the subject is in focus, the focus area or

focus indicator (A8) lights in green. If the

focus area or focus indicator flashes in red, the

subject is out of focus. Press the shutter-

release button halfway again.

• See “Focus and Exposure” (A27) for more

information.

2 Press the shutter-release button all the way to

take a picture.

• “Pressing all the way“ is the action of pressing the

shutter-release button the rest of the way down.

B Note on Recording Images and Saving Movies

The indicator showing the number of exposures remaining or the indicator showing the maximum

movie length flashes while images are being recorded or while a movie is being saved. Do not open

the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover or remove the battery or memory card while an

indicator is flashing. Doing this could result in loss of data, or in damage to the camera or the

memory card.

C AF-assist Illuminator

In dark places, the AF-assist illuminator (A1, 104) may light when the shutter-release button is

pressed halfway.

C To Make Sure You Do Not Miss a Shot

If you are concerned that you might miss a shot, press the shutter-release button all the way without

first pressing it halfway.
