SHUTTER BUTTON

The shutter button of the DP3 Merrill cameras has two positions. When

you press the shutter button “halfway down”, the camera’s autofocus

systems will activate. When pressing the button “all-the-way down”, the

shutter will release to take a picture.

TIP

 Before you start to take pictures, we recommend that you operate

the camera, to become familiar with the “halfway down” position

and other features of the camera.

 Normally, if the card is not inserted in to the camera body, it is not

possible to release the shutter. If you would like to release the shutter

without a card, please set from [

Camera Settings] (P. 28 ) →

[Release without Card].
