Press down the shutter release halfway.

Focusing is complete when the AF lamp (green) lights up.

If you are closer than 90 cm (35 in.) to the subject, the AF lamp will start blinking to warn that the
subject cannot be focused. Note that if you are closer than 35 cm (14 in.) to the subject, the AF
lamp turns on but the subject cannot be focused.

Press the shutter button down completely.

The film advances to the next frame.

The number indicated by the exposure counter decreases by one each time a picture is taken.

The AF lamp will go off once and reappear immediately after the shutter is released.

During the charging time of the flash (when the alarm sign is blinking “    ”) the shutter cannot be
released.
