Pressing the shutter release button half way

When you press the shutter release button, it stops at a
point on the way down to the fully pressed position. At this
point, it is said to be pressed half way and the camera
determines the focus in readiness for taking a picture. If you
then continue pressing the shutter release button all the way
down, the camera takes the picture.
