Step 3 Focus and Shoot
1
Press the shutter-release button 
halfway.
When the shutter-release button is pressed 
halfway (
A 7), the camera sets focus and 
exposure (shutter speed and aperture 
value). Focus and exposure remain locked 
while the shutter-release button is pressed 
halfway.
When a face is detected, it is framed by the double border 
indicating the active focus area. When the subject is in 
focus, the double border turns green.
When a face is not detected, the camera automatically 
selects one (or more) of the nine focus areas containing 
the subject closest to the camera. When focus is set, the 
active focus area (up to nine areas) turns green.
When digital zoom is used, the focus area is not displayed 
and the camera focuses at the center of the frame. Once 
focus has been acquired, the focus indicator will glow 
green.
If the focus area or the focus indicator blinks red when 
the shutter-release button is pressed halfway, the camera is unable to focus. Modify the 
composition and press the shutter-release button halfway again.
2
Press the shutter-release button the rest of 
the way down.
The shutter is released and the picture will be recorded to 
the memory card or internal memory.
