HOLDING CAMERA
t
-"t"
Proper holding of the
camera
is
essential
to
minimize camera shake
which causes blurred
pictures.
Practice
holding
and
operating
your
camera
before
inserting
your
f irst,f ilm cartridge.
Generally there
are three basic
ways
to
hold the
camera.
In
any case,
hold the
camera tightly
to
your
face with
your
hands. The
grips
on
this
camera
will help
you
keep a steady
hold on
your
camera.
Release'the shutter
gently
while slowly
breathing
out. Strong
pressure
on
the shutter
release
button
may cause blurred
photographs.
Take
a
secure,
well-balanced
posture
without
straining
yourself.
The
portion
marked
O
in
the
illustration
should
be drawn to
your
body.
lt is a
good
idea to stabilize
your
body and
the camera
using
a tree,
building
wall, table, etc.
For
long
exposures
or
while using telephoto
lenses, it is
recommended
to use a tripod and
a cable
release
in order to reduce camera shake
to
a
minimum.
