SHUTTER BUTTON
The shutter button of the SD1 Merrill cameras has two positions. When you
press the shutter button halfway, the camera’s autofocus and Exposure
Systems activate. When you press the button “all-the-way down”, and the
shutter will release to take a picture.
TIP

Before you start to take pictures, we recommend that you operate the
camera, to become familiar with the halfway position and other features of the
camera.
