Pushing the Shutter Button Grasp the grip on the camera firmly and use the flat of your finger (not your fingertip) to press the shutter button gently. Applying too much pressure could cause camera shake and spoil your shot by blurring the image. The shutter is released in two steps, first with a half-press and second with a full-press. Half-press (gently pressing the button down half-way) Full-press (after half-pressing, gently press down all the way.) A half-press does not release the shutter. When you half-press the shutter button, automatic focusing and exposure adjustment begins. The AF correct mark in the lower left corner of the viewfinder lights when the subject is in focus. As long as you keep the shutter button depressed half way, the subject will remain in focus and the exposure will not change. This is called AF/AE lock. Releases the shutter to take the picture. Shutter button Time from full-press to shutter release When the monitor is used to compose and shoot a picture, shutter release will be slightly delayed. Also, please remember that when you use the flash, shutter release will be further delayed approximately 200ms. for firing the pre-flash. The camera can be set to emit a sound at shutter release.
