Shooting digital images
Turn the mode dial to the 
red camera icon 
.
The optical viewfinder is 
ideal for candid shots and 
for use in bright light.
The camera takes a few 
seconds to complete saving. 
Only then is it ready for the 
next shot.
Switch the camera on.
Look through the viewfinder 
or switch the TFT screen on 
by pressing the screen icon 
on the camera back.
Press the shutter release 
fully down.
The camera will save your 
picture to the memory card.
Because of autofocusing, the 
shutter release operates in 
two stages. To take your 
picture, always press it fully.
Autofocus photography
The shutter release operates 
in two stages: Half 
depressed, the camera will 
start automatic focusing.
This always takes a second 
or so (approx. 1.5 second for 
a subject 3 m away).
Once the camera has 
focused on your subject, a 
green lamp will light beside 
the viewfinder eyepiece 
(focus indicator), and a short 
beep will be heard.
Only now should you press 
the shutter release fully for 
exposure.
Always wait for the green 
light beside the viewfinder 
to come on before pressing 
the shutter release fully.
The beep may be disabled 
via the Set menu (accessible 
with the mode dial).
It is advisable to practice the 
two-stage release of the 
shutter.
For critical subjects you have 
the additional option of 
manual focusing as well as 
the Macro mode.
Always reset the camera 
from other settings in the 
Playback, transfer and set 
menus to the camera icon, 
so you‘ll always be ready to 
shoot at a moment‘s notice.
If your main subject is 
off-center, lock focus on the 
most important detail by 
keeping the shutter release 
pressed halfway. Then 
recompose with the release 
held in this position.
