"No picture is taken when the shutter button is pressed".
Cancel sleep mode.
To save battery power, the camera automatically goes into sleep mode and the monitor turns off if there is no operation for 3 minutes when the camera is turned on. No picture is taken even if the shutter button is fully pressed in this mode. Operate the zoom buttons or other buttons to restore the camera from sleep mode before taking a picture. If the camera is left for another 12 minutes, it automatically turns off. Press the n button to turn the camera on.
Miscellaneous
"The camera makes a noise when taking pictures".
The camera may activate the lens and make a
noise even if no operation is performed. This is because the camera automatically performs actions of auto focus as far as it is ready to shoot.
Press the K button to set a shooting mode. Wait until #(flash charge) stops blinking before
taking pictures.

When you are unsure of how to take a picture that you envision, refer to the information below.
Fast-moving object
Focusing
"Focusing on the subject"
Taking a picture of a subject not in the center
of the screen After focusing on an object at the same distance as the subject, compose the shot, and take the picture. 14)
The subject is not in the center of the frame
Camera shake
"Taking pictures without camera shake"
Taking a picture of subjects where autofocus
is difficult In the following cases, after focusing on an object (by pressing the shutter button halfway down) with high contrast at the same distance as the subject, compose the shot, and take the picture.
Taking pictures using h mode (p. 17)

Subjects with low contrast
If a high ISO sensitivity is selected, pictures can be taken at a high shutter speed even at locations where a flash cannot be used.
