2 BEFORE USING YOUR CAMERA
IMPORTANT To ensure that you use your camera correctly, read the Safety Notes
in section 8 and the rest of this user manual carefully.
HOLDING THE CAMERA CORRECTLY
Due to the extremely compact size and light weight of the camera, it is critical that
you hold the camera securely in order to avoid “camera shake”. The camera is
particularly sensitive to “shake” in low light environments. Taking a picture in low
light requires a longer exposure time for the image to be captured and any
movement during this time might cause a blurred image.
When taking a photo in low light the flash may trigger. Before this happens, try to
avoid gripping the camera with your fingers placed on the front face of the camera.
Instead, hold the camera on its edges so that the light of the flash does not reflect off
your finger(s) and cause lens flare.
TEST PHOTOS
Before you capture your first images, we recommend you take some test photos to
make sure that the camera is working properly. This will also help you become
comfortable holding the camera in order to capture satisfactory images.
