Take the picture.
Note
Press the shutter button gently. If it is pressed forcefully, the camera may
move causing the picture to blur.
Never open the battery compartment/card cover, remove the battery or
disconnect the AC adapter while the self-timer/card access lamp is blinking.
Doing so could destroy stored pictures and prevent storage of pictures you
have just taken.
Recorded pictures are saved in the camera regardless of whether the camera
is turned off or the battery are replaced or removed.
When taking pictures against strong backlight, the area of the picture in
shadow may appear colored.
Memory gauge
When the shutter button is pressed, the memory gauge lights and the
picture is recorded. The memory gauge changes according to how many
pictures the camera is processing. This indicator is not displayed while
recording movies.
