Taking pictures

When you turn on the camera for the first time, it's in Smart Capture mode—great for general picture taking. (After that, the camera "remembers" the last mode you used. To change modes, Using different modes and effects.)


  1. Use the LCD to compose the picture.

  2. Press the Shutter button halfway to focus and set exposure.

Framing marks indicate the camera focus area. If the camera is not focusing on the desired subject, release the Shutter button and recompose the scene.

  3. Press the Shutter button completely down.

   A quickview—showing the new picture—is briefly displayed. If you're in a hurry to take more pictures, press the Shutter button halfway down and release it. The quickview is dismissed.

IMPORTANT: Press the Share button to share anytime. To learn more, see Sharing pictures/videos.
