The Basics of Shooting and Playback
1 Press the shutter-release button halfway.
• When the subject is in focus, the focus area glows green
(multiple focus areas can glow green).
• When you are using digital zoom, the camera focuses on
the subject in the center of the frame and the focus area is
not displayed. When the camera has focused, the focus
indicator (A 9) glows green.
• If the focus area or focus indicator flashes, the camera is
unable to focus. Modify the composition and try pressing
the shutter-release button halfway again.
2 Without lifting your finger, press the shutter-
release button the rest of the way down.
