Basic Operation
[i]
If you press the shutter button halfway and
(04
) elapse, you must press it
halfway again and
waita
moment before pressing it completely to take a
picture.
If
you press the shutter button completely without pressing it halfway
first
or
if you press the shutter button halfway and then press it completely
immediately, the camera will take a moment before it takes the picture.
Ever during image playback, menu display, or image recording, you can press
the shutter button halfway to instantly return to shooting. (This does not work
during direct printing or while the direct image transfer screen
is
displayed.)
Camera movement during the
moment
of
exposure is called camera
shake. Camera shake can cause blurred pictures.
To
prevent camera
shake, note the advice below. Also see "Holding the Camera" (p.44).
• Hold the
camera
steady.
• Put
your
finger tip on
the
shutter
button, hold
the
camera
with
your
right
hand,
then
press the
shutter
button gently.
