Taking Still Pictures
How you hold the camera is important when taking pictures.
• Hold the camera firmly with both hands.
• Press the shutter release button gently when taking a picture.
The X90 features various capture modes, focus modes, and drive
modes for expressing your photographic vision. This section explains
how to take pictures using I (Auto Picture) mode, by simply pressing
the shutter release button.
In I mode, the camera automatically selects the most appropriate
mode depending on the situations and subjects.
