Shooting
Taking still pictures
Set the Mode dial to "P".
You can also take pictures
with the Mode dial set to
"A/S/M". (P.88-91)
Compose the picture by
looking through the
viewfinder and using the
zoom lever. (P.72)
Compose the shot so that the
subject is in the center of the
AF target mark.
The actual shot is slightly larg-
er than the area visible in the
viewfinder.
Press the shutter button
down halfway.
The focus and exposure are
locked and the green lamp
beside the viewfinder lights.
To focus on a subject that is
not in the center of the shot,
use focus lock. (P.78)
If the green lamp blinks, the
focus or exposure is not
locked. See "Focusing on dif-
ficult subjects (subjects not
suited to autofocus)" on P.76.
If you have selected full-time AF
(P.79), the camera constantly
focuses even when the shutter
button is not pressed down
halfway, making focusing times
shorter.
