Using
the
Camera

22
Use the LCD monitor to frame the shot so that the
subject fills the entire AF (Autofocus) frame.
!
The image on the LCD monitor before the picture is taken
may differ in brightness, color, etc. from the image actually
recorded. Play back the recorded image to check it (
➡P.29).
!
The subject may sometimes be difficult to see clearly on the
LCD monitor (in bright sunlight or dimly lit scenes, etc.). If so,
use the viewfinder to take the picture.
6
To take the picture, press the Shutter button down
fully without lifting your finger off. The camera clicks
and takes the picture. The data is then recorded.
!
There is a slight delay between the Shutter button being
pressed and the picture being taken. Playback the shot to
check the image.
!
When pressing the Shutter button down fully in one motion,
the camera takes the shot without the AF frame changing.
!
When the camera takes the picture, the viewfinder lamp lights
orange (shooting disabled). The viewfinder lamp then turns
green and the next picture can be taken.
!
The viewfinder lamp blinks orange while the flash is charging.
The LCD monitor may go dark briefly. This is normal.
!
See P.118, 119 for information on the warning displays.

Bebeep
Press the Shutter button down halfway. The
camera emits a short double-beep and focuses on
your subject. The AF frame on the LCD monitor
becomes smaller and the camera sets the shutter
speed and aperture (the viewfinder lamp (green)
stops blinking and remains lit).

!
If the camera does not emit a short double-beep and “
{
appears on the LCD monitor, the camera cannot focus.
!
Pressing the Shutter button down halfway freezes the image
on the LCD monitor briefly. This is not the recorded image.
!
If “
{
” appears on the LCD monitor (e.g. the shot is too dark
for the camera to focus), stand about 2 m (6.6 ft.) from your
subject to take the picture.
When the flash will fire, “

monitor.

Subjects not suitable for autofocus 
The FinePix F710 uses a high-precision autofocusing mechanism. However, it may have AF frame
difficulty focusing on the following:
h Very shiny subjects such as a mirror or car body
h Subjects photographed through glass
h Subjects that do not reflect well, such as hair or fur
h Subjects with no substance, such as smoke or flames
h Dark subjects
h Fast moving subjects
h Subjects with little or no contrast between the subject
and the background (such as white walls or subjects
dressed in the same color as the background)
h Shots where another high-contrast object (not the
subject) is close to the AF frame and is either closer or
further away than your subject (such as a shot of
someone against a background with strongly
contrasting elements)
For such subjects use AF/AE lock (
➡P.26).

Focal range
Approx. 60 cm (2.0 ft.) to infinity

Use Macro mode for subjects closer than 60 cm (2.0 ft.)
(

Press the Flash pop-up button to pop up the flash.
!
When the flash pops up, the image on the LCD monitor may
disappear and the LCD monitor may go dark due to flash
charging. When this happens, the viewfinder lamp blinks
orange.
!
If the flash is used in very dusty conditions of when it is
snowing, white dots may appear in the image due to flash
reflecting off dust particles or snowflakes. Use Suppressed
flash mode.
!
When the camera is turned off, the flash is closed.
Brace your elbows against your sides and hold the
camera with both hands. Position your right thumb
so that it is handy for using the zoom.
!
Moving the camera while shooting gives a blurred picture
(camera shake). Use a tripod to avoid camera shake,
particularly for shots in the dark when the selected flash
mode is Suppressed flash.
!
There may be some unevenness in the brightness at the
lower edge of the LCD monitor. This is normal and does not
affect the image.

Check that the lens is clean. If it is dirty, clean the lens as
described on P.115.
Hold the camera so that your fingers or the strap do
not cover the lens, flash, AF-Assist illuminator or
Flash control sensor. If the lens, flash, AF-Assist
illuminator or Flash control sensor is obscured, the
brightness (exposure) of your shot may be
incorrect.
