.2 Take the picture
• To take a picture, smoothly press the shut-
ter-release button all the way down.
• If necessary, the built-in Speedlight will pop
up and fire.
• Jabbing the shutter-release button will
cause the camera to shake and result in
blurred pictures. Smoothly press the shut-
ter-release button all the way down.
• After you have taken your picture, the
quick delete icon (
) will be
shown in the monitor for a few seconds
while the picture is being recorded to the
memory card (
67).
During Recording
While pictures are being recorded to the memory card, a
icon will be dis-
played in the monitor. Pictures taken while earlier images are being recorded
are stored in a temporary memory buffer. When the buffer is full, an hour-
glass ( ) icon will be displayed and the shutter release will be disabled.
Do not turn the camera off, remove the memory card, or remove or discon-
nect the power source while or
is displayed.
Display Delay
When shooting, the image sent from the imaging chip (CCD) is processed and
displayed in the monitor or viewfinder. This processing causes the displayed
image to be slightly behind the actual movements of the subject. When shoot-
ing fast moving subjects, select Quick Response from the Shutter Release
Speed menu in the Monitor Options menu (
126).
