3.
Press the shutter button all the way (full-press).
[
The camera takes the picture and two
short beep tones are generated.
[
The orange lamp on the right of the
viewfinder blinks (to indicate that the
image is being recorded on the card) for
a few seconds and then goes out.
[
When you take a picture, it is displayed
on the monitor for a short time.
4.
You can take another picture when the
orange lamp goes out.
If the green lamp blinks, focus may
be incorrect. Release your finger from
the shutter button, hold the camera
securely again and half press the
button again. If the subject cannot be
brought into focus, see Page 40.
When the distance from the
camera to the subject is less than
0.5 meter/1.6 feet, select the
Macro mode. (
