Shutter button
No picture is taken when the shutter button is pressed.
• Cancel sleep mode.
To save battery power, the camera automatically goes into sleep mode and
the monitor turns off if there is no operation for 3 minutes when the camera is
turned on. No picture is taken even if the shutter button is fully pressed in this
mode. Operate the zoom lever or other buttons to restore the camera from
sleep mode before taking a picture. If the camera is left for another 5 minutes,
it automatically turns off. Press the
n
button to turn the camera on.
• Press the
q
button to switch to the shooting mode.
• Wait until
#
(flash charge) stops blinking before taking pictures.
• With prolonged camera use, the internal temperature may increase, resulting
in automatic shutdown. If this occurs, wait until the camera has sufficiently
cooled.
The camera’s external temperature may also increase during use, however
this is normal and does not indicate malfunction.
