NOTE If you release the Shutter button only halfway after
taking a picture, the focus and exposure measurements
from the previous picture are retained. You can then press
the Shutter button all the way down again and take
another picture with the same focus and exposure as the
previous picture. You can continue to do this to capture a
sequence of pictures using the same focus and exposure.
This is helpful when rapidly taking pictures and for
capturing images for panoramic stitching.
Recording Audio with Still Pictures
There are two ways to attach an audio clip to a still picture:
• Record the audio while you are taking the picture
(explained in this section).
• Add an audio annotation to the picture later (or re-
record the audio that was captured when the picture was
taken). For details on how to do this, see Play/Record
Audio on page 64.
NOTE
The method described in this section is not available in
Self-Timer or Burst modes.
1 Press the Shutter button all the way down to take the picture.
2
Continue to hold the Shutter button down to record the
audio clip. A microphone icon ( ) and audio counter
appear on the active display during recording.
3 To stop recording, release the Shutter button, otherwise the
audio will continue recording for up to 60 seconds or until
the memory card fills up, whichever comes first.
To play back, delete, or record new audio clips, use the Record
Audio section in the Playback menu (see Using the Playback
Menu on page 61).
