If you are using an SD card, slide the card’s write-protect switch to the

taken. Press the shutter button halfway again to refocus automatically,
or focus manually (p.44, 112).

Cards with capacities greater than 128 GB are formatted in exFAT.
This means that if you format a card with a capacity over 128 GB with

displayed and it may not be possible to use the card.

use a tripod.
