Quick Start Basics
1. Point the camera at the subject.
If you are using Premium Auto, text will appear in the
lower right corner of the monitor screen describing the
type of shot the camera has detected.
You can zoom the image, if you want.
To shoot a snapshot
2. Half-press the shutter button to
focus the image.
When focus is complete, the camera
will beep, the back lamp will light green,
and the focus frame will turn green.
When you half-press the shutter button, the
camera automatically adjusts exposure and
focuses on the subject it is currently pointed at.
Mastering how much pressure is required for a
half-press and a full-press of the shutter button
is an important technique for good-looking
images.
The focus frame in the screen shots included
in this manual is shown at ß. Note that you
can change the form of the focus frame, if
you want (page 65).
Appears when the
camera detects it is
stationary on a tripod.
