• Taking Photos
Now that you are familiar with your camera, you are now ready to take your
photos.
Taking photos with your camera is very simple.
1. Turn on the camera by pressing the Power
button.
2. Slide the Mode Switch to Photo mode .
3. Frame your subject on the LCD display
then press the shutter button halfway
down. The camera automatically adjusts
the focus and exposure. When the camera
is ready to take the photo, the focus frame
turns green, the shutter speed and aperture
value are displayed. (When the focus frame
is in red and the operation LED blinks, the
subject is not in focus. Release the shutter
button and repeat this step until the focus
frame turns green.
4. Press the Shutter button all the way down to capture your image. When
the shake warning icon appears, hold the camera steady, with your arms
at your side or use a tripod to stabilize the camera to prevent a blurry
image. You may need to turn on the camera’s flash or enable the Image
Stabilizer feature to get a better picture.
