Position the camera as necessary to
compose the picture, using the monitor as
your viewfinder.
2
Half-press the shutter release button, wait
for the green lamp to come on solid, and
then continue to hold at half-press until
ready to shoot.
• The camera automatically sets the focus
and exposure, and the autofocus target
mark disappears.
• If the green lamp is blinking, the picture is
not in focus. Take your finger off the shutter
release button for a moment, and then try
again.
If your subject is very close to the
camera...
If your subject is less than 31 inches from the
lens, you should use the macro feature to take
the picture (p.83). Although it is possible to take
a close subject without using this feature, the
result may be out of focus or incorrectly
exposed.
