Taking still pictures
24
En
Press the shutter button half-
way.
When the focus and exposure are 
locked, the green lamp lights 
steadily.
 
When the flash is going to fire, the flash standby indicator lights.
 
If the green lamp blinks, this means that the focus is not yet locked. Press 
the shutter button half-way again.
Press the shutter button all 
the way (fully) down to take 
the picture.
The picture is stored on the card.
 
The card access mark (X) on the monitor blinks red while the picture is 
being stored on the card.
 
Never open the battery compartment/card cover, or connect or disconnect 
the battery or AC adapter while the card access mark (X) on the monitor is 
blinking. The picture just taken may not be stored and also the data of the 
pictures stored on the card may be lost.
 
Memory gauge
The memory gauge lights up when 
you take a picture. While the gauge 
is lit, the camera is storing the 
picture on the card. When the 
memory gauge is fully lit (as shown 
on right), no more pictures can be 
taken. Wait until the gauge turns off 
before taking the next picture.
