Holding the camera.
Keep your fingers and the strap away from the lens and the flash.

Place the AF frame on the subject while viewing through the
viewfinder.

Adjust the focus.
Press the shutter button gently (halfway).
• The focus is locked when a beep tone is output.
The AF confirmation mark and the AF focusing
frame light up in the viewfinder.
• The shutter speed and aperture value that have
been set automatically by the camera are
displayed.
• The control panel screen is not displayed when the
shutter button is pressed.

Release the shutter.
Press the shutter button all the way (fully).
• When a picture is taken, a shutter sound is output.
• The card access lamp blinks and the camera starts
recording the picture.
• Never remove the battery or card while the card access lamp mark is blinking. Doing so

To save battery power, the camera automatically enters the sleep mode (stand-by) and stops
operating if not used for approximately 1 minute. The camera activates again when you touch
any button (the shutter button, arrow pad etc.).
