—Shooting

Press the shutter-release button smoothly all the way
down to take a photograph.

While the photograph is being recorded to the memory card, the card access lamp
will light. Do not eject the memory card, turn the camera off, remove the batter y, or
unplug the AC adapter (available separately) until the lamp has stopped blinking.
Removing the card or cutting power in these circumstances could result in loss of
data.

Your camera is equipped with a combined electronic (CCD) and mechanical shutter. This
shutter operates on a different principle from the mechanical shutter s found in film cameras.
As a result, the interval between the sounds made by the shutter and mirror will not decrease
past a certain point, even at high shutter speeds.

Using this setting, you can choose whether images are displayed automatically in the LCD
monitor while they are recorded to the memory card, or if images are only displayed when the

button is pressed.
