Minolta MAXXUM 3xi - Holding the Camera

HOLDING THE CAMERA
Hold the grip firmly in your right hand and use your left hand to support the
camera or lens. Keep your elbows securely against your sides when shooting
both horizontal and vertical pictures. Press the shutter-release button gently
in a single, steady motion—never with a quick jab. Always keep the camera
strap around your neck or wound around one wrist.
• When you pick up the camera, make sure you touch the grip sensor.
Otherwise, Eye-Start will not function.
• Do not touch the focusing ring of an AF lens or the end of the lens barrel of
an xi-Series Autozoom lens or AF Power Zoom lens.
