2. Look straight through the viewfinder and center your

subject in the cross-hairs.

Note:
The frame in the viewfinder indicates the area captured
when taking pictures at close range.

3. Hold the shutter button halfway down to lock the

auto focus. The status light beside the viewfinder
changes from green to orange. If you wish, you can
now move your subject off-center without altering
the focus. Press the shutter button the rest of the way
down to take the photo.

4. Hold the camera still until the status light starts

flashing red and the camera beeps.

The flashing red light indicates that the image is
captured and the camera is processing it. (If you try to
press the shutter button while the status light is flashing
red, you will hear two “error” beeps.) When the light
stops flashing and turns green, the image is saved. Saved
images remain in memory for years, even when the
camera is turned off and the batteries are removed. You
can take another photo when the status light turns green.

Using the LCD monitor

1. Turn the camera on and slide the monitor mode switch

on the back of the camera to View. You will see a live
preview on the LCD screen. Center your subject on
the screen.
