Taking pictures 9
Using automatic focus, macro
focus, and automatic exposure
The camera adjusts the focus and exposure automatically for the
current lighting condition, but you are more likely to catch the
perfect shot, especially when you are photographing an active
subject, if you set the camera’s focus and exposure early. To do
this, press the
SHUTTER
button halfway down, and then press the
SHUTTER
button all the way down at the exact moment you wish to
capture the image.
Note If the camera cannot find a focus or if the exposure
will be longer than 1/30 second, a blinking green
light appears to the right of the viewfinder. You can
still take the picture, but the results might not be
optimal.
Using focus lock
The automatic focus feature focuses on the subject in the middle
of the picture and requires good contrast within that subject area.
If you do not want your subject to be in the middle of the image or
if the subject lacks contrast, use focus lock.
1 With the camera on, frame a subject that is the same distance
from the lens as your subject.
2 Press the
SHUTTER
button halfway down to lock the focus. Wait
until you see a steady green light next to the viewfinder.
3 Keeping the
SHUTTER
button pressed halfway down, move the
camera to frame your subject.
4 Press the
SHUTTER
button all the way down to take the picture.
