NOTE

If you release the

Shutter

button only halfway after

taking a picture, the focus and exposure measurements
from the previous picture are retained. You can then press
the

Shutter

button all the way down again and take

another picture with the same focus and exposure as the
previous picture. You can continue to do this to capture a
sequence of pictures using the same focus and exposure.
This is helpful when rapidly taking pictures and for
capturing panoramas.
