Press the Shutter button halfway down. 3. Hold the Shutter button halfway down and re- frame. 4. Press the Shutter button all the way down to take the picture. Optimizing exposure When you press the Shutter button halfway down, the camera also measures the light level to set the proper exposure. If the camera determines the scene will require a very long exposure, a shaking hand icon ( ) appears. The camera will take the picture, but it may be blurry because it is difficult to hold the camera still for the length of time required.

Other recommendations If an image does not appear to be in proper focus or exposure when you review it in Playback, use Image Advice (see Image Advice under Using the Playback Menu on page 27) to help you determine how to correct the problem for similar images in the future.
