Pressing the shutter button halfway and all the way down

rest of) the way down.”

% Tips

If no operations are performed for a minute, the camera enters “sleep” (stand-by) mode

to turn off the monitor and to cancel all actions. The camera activates again when you

touch any button (the shutter button, q button, etc.). [Sleep]: g “Customizing camera

settings” (P. 81)

# Cautions

If the camera is used for extended periods, the temperature of the image pickup

device will rise and noise and colored fog may appear in images recorded at high ISO

sensitivities. Choose a lower ISO sensitivity or turn the camera off for a short period.
