Pressing The Shutter Button - Canon IXUS 230 HS Getting Started

Pressing the Shutter Button

To take images that are in focus, be sure to first press the shutter button
lightly (halfway) to focus, then press fully to shoot.
Does the length of the shutter sound change?
• Since the time required to shoot differs depending on the scene you want to
take, the length of the shutter sound may change.
• If the camera or subject moves while the shutter sound is playing, the recorded
image may be blurry.
If you shoot without pressing the shutter button halfway, the image may not
be in focus.
Press halfway
Press lightly until the camera beeps twice
and AF frames appear where the camera
focused.
Press fully
(Press fully to shoot).
The camera plays the shutter sound and
takes the shot.
Since the shot is being taken while the
shutter sound plays, be careful not to move
the camera.
(Press lightly to focus).
