Taking Still Pictures

You can take a picture almost any time the camera is on,

regardless of what is being shown on the Image Display.

For example, if a menu is currently displayed when you

press the Shutter button, the menu will be canceled, and

the camera will take a picture. To take a still picture:
1. Frame the subject for your picture

in the viewfinder.

2. Hold the camera steady and

press the Shutter button on the top

of the camera halfway down. The

camera measures and locks the

focus and exposure. The focus

brackets in the Image Display turn solid green when

focus is locked (see Obtaining Optimum Focus on

page 35 for details).

3. Press the Shutter button all the way down to take the

picture. The camera beeps after taking the picture.

TIP: Hold the camera with both hands to reduce camera

shake when pressing the Shutter button.

After a picture is taken, the image appears for several

seconds on the Image Display. This is called Instant Review.

You can delete the image during Instant Review by

pressing the button, then selecting This Image in the

Delete sub-menu.
