3. Press the shutter button halfway down.
The camera automatically adjusts the
focus and exposure. When the camera is
ready to take the photo, the focus frame
turns green, the shutter speed and
aperture value are displayed. (When the
focus frame is in red and the operation
LED blinks, the subject is not in focus.
Release the shutter button, recompose
the scene and press the shutter button
halfway to reset the focus.)
4. Press the Shutter button all the way down to capture your image.
When the shake warning icon
appears, hold the camera steady, with
your arms at your side or use a tripod to stabilize the camera to prevent
a blurry image. You may need to turn on the camera’s flash or enable the
Image Stabilizer feature to get a better picture.
